Al Stewart came to stardom as part of the legendary British Folk Revival in the 60s and 70s, and developed a combination offolk-rock songs with delicately woven tales of the great characters and events from history.
He is best known for his hits “Year of the Cat” from the Platinum album of the same name, the Platinum album Time Passages, and “On the Border.”
In Al’s own words:
“I'm just a folk singer that is interested in history and wine that got lucky with some hit records! It's as simple as that really. And in many ways, I'm still pretty much the same troubadour that I was
back in 1965. I still get a kick out of hearing the Zombies, Hendrix, or They Might be Giants on the radio.”
The Empty Pockets ignite a bright flame of their own by harnessing a joyful friction between Americana, folk, and rock ‘n’ roll spiked with roots soul. They reached #1 on the 2022 Billboard Blues Albums Chart with “Outside Spectrum.”
In 2022 Al Stewart came back touring full force with his band The Empty Pockets, in a string of sold out shows in the US and UK.
In 2024 he will continue touring and playing his old favorites along with selections from his deep catalogue.
