Folk singer Jack Robertson and singer Tymisha play The New Adelphi Club, the iconic independent venue on De Grey Street.
Jack Robertson and Tymisha play The New Adelphi Club on Wednesday 11 November, a double bill that brings together two very different voices on one stage. Robertson is a folk singer and songwriter based in Scarborough, and he'll be sharing the night with Tymisha, an artist whose work sits in a different register entirely.
Robertson's debut album, Danube Blues, came out of a retreat in Bratislava and runs through his life from January 2020 to February 2025. He's already working on a second record, due late 2026, and has put out the first taste of it with 'Corporation Blues'—an upbeat country track that takes aim at corporate finance. His sound draws from American folk, with Bob Dylan and Jim Croce as two of the names he cites.
Tymisha works with a different kind of intensity. She describes her dynamic vocals and hard-hitting lyrics as a way to help audiences feel and process their own heartbreak and traumas, so her set should pull in a different crowd than Robertson's folk. Between the two, the night covers a fair bit of ground.
