About this concert
Join the acclaimed Bookshop Band for an evening performance, including songs from their new album, Emerge, Return, produced by Pete Townshend. The band started as an artistic love-affair between a group of award winning songwriters and an independent bookshop in the UK, Mr B’s Emporium of Reading Delights. Between them Beth Porter and Ben Please bring the books to the stage along with a multitude of instruments, which along with their distinct voices, create a cinematic sound that draws the audience right in to a highly intimate performance, at once touching and mesmorising, heart-wrenching and funny.
