Join us in our Studio for an intimate and magical concert in with The Bookshop Band, celebrating the release of their 14th studio album, Emerge, Return.
The band formed out of a collaboration between award-winning songwriters and their local bookshop, writing songs inspired by the books of visiting authors. Between them Beth Porter and Ben Please bring the books to the stage along with a multitude of instruments, to create a cinematic sound that draws the audience in, at once touching and mesmerizing, heart wrenching and funny. No previous knowledge of the books is required as the band guide the audience through the stories behind each song's inspiration.
The concert will feature songs from the album, inspired by authors including Margaret Atwood, Philip Pullman and Robert Macfarlane among others, and you'll leave enchanted with new melodies and stories, plus a few new book recommendations of your own.
"Not just good, but achingly good" The New York Times
"Fairytale-land for adults. You'll be smitten." BBC 6Music
"Really fabulous new music." Bob Harris, BBC Radio 2
"The band are great. If I had a bookshop I'd stock all their albums" Margaret Atwood
