We love a great voice here at Boat of Garten Community Hall, and these are two of the best. It’s the return of the wonderful Adam Holmes. Adam will be playing material from his latest album, Survivor and from across his career.
Adam will be supported by J P Worsfold.
Adam Holmes cut his teeth in the world of folk music.
Taking a space at the end of the bar in legendary folk pub Sandy Bells at eight years old to soak up the music.
Age 15, The death of a close friend and a cascade into addiction.
Leaving school and moving out the family home age 16 he worked construction by day and battle rapped by night.
He found his way out through the focus of rapping until a singer booked didn't show, Adam stepped up and discovered his singing voice.
On the very same day he was finally offered a Carpentry apprenticeship aged 19 he received a phone-call offering him a place in the semi finals of the BBC Young Traditional Musician of the Year 2009.
He hasn't looked back since.
Adam Holmes lyrics resonate like ancient folk songs. His melodies familiar and uplifting. Its not unusual to feel tears during his live shows which have the feel of a boozy church service.
James Bond meets Robert Burns. Classy and timeless.
