As the singer in I Am Kloot from 1999 to 2014, John Bramwell achieved a Mercury Prize nomination for 2010’s The Sky At Night, a Top 10 chart position for 2013’s Let It All In, numerous UK and European tours and a triumphant farewell at the Queen Elizabeth Hall with an orchestra in 2014.Now, as a solo artist and part of his 2026 UK Tour, Bramwell travels a very different path. One that criss-crosses the length and breadth of the UK with a humble agenda of taking his heartwarming songs to the stage and enjoying another moment in time with his devoted fans.
The stunning 2023 sophomore solo album, The Light Fantastic, was an almost complete U-turn from the I Am Kloot outlook they were known for. Darker clouds banished and a dozen gloriously exhilarating, beautifully crafted and observed songs about life, humanity, the universe and everything.
As John put it, “It’s been great to find the joy of making music once again. These are the most uplifting songs of my career.”
John conjures up his true magic as songwriter and performer. A never-ending rolling adventure since his workings away from Kloot and in the last three years has visited almost every parish in England, Scotland, and Wales to be met with halls, theatres, arts centres, churches, festival tents and folk clubs – the enriched, wildly playful inter-song banter is so good, a stand-up comedy tour has been contemplated.
John’s razor-sharp wit, on the line and refreshingly true, and often hilarious, observations and instantly recognisable haunting vocal channelled through some of the most honest and direct songwriting of our times has seen him championed in rave reviews, time after time. Most recently, God Is In The TV celebrated John’s 2025 Beautiful Days performance as the highlight of the weekend.
You will be treated to an unforgettable evening and experience.
