Bring It On Home — LiveThe Old Brewery Store, Faversham | Thursday 21 January 2027
Bring It On Home is a celebration of fingerstyle acoustic guitar on Britain's roots music scene today — and now it comes to Faversham as a bespoke live show.
Born as an album of exclusive recordings by nine musicians performing early 20th century songs, and a companion film telling their stories, Bring It On Home has become one of the most acclaimed acoustic blues projects in the UK. The record has picked up glowing reviews across the music press and repeat plays on BBC 6Music's Cerys Matthews show — and now three of its musicians bring the songs to the stage in an intimate evening of acoustic Folk, Blues and Rhythm & Blues, built entirely around the finger-picked guitar.
"APM has curated a smorgasbord of the finest fingerpicking from across the country." — Songlines
"This is a wonderful and refreshing collection by a talented group of musicians." — Blues Matters
"With convincing vocal blues and fine fingerpicked instrumentals, the acoustic blues in the UK is indeed in good hands. Let's hope for a Volume Two, please." — Blues In Britain
