Tom McRae

McRae's critically acclaimed debut earned him nominations for the Mercury Prize, a Q Award and the BRIT Award for Best Newcomer. In the quarter century since, he has built one of the most quietly devoted audiences in British music across ten albums — from Just Like Blood and The Alphabet of Hurricanes to his most recent record Étrange Hiver— while resisting every fashion that might have made him more famous and every shortcut that might have made him less himself. This evening draws from the full breadth of that catalogue. Expect the songs you know by heart, a few you'd half forgotten, and the candid, witty story telling between them that makes a Tom McRae show feel less like a concert and more like a long conversation with someone who has been paying close attention to the world.
