Jamie Webster, the Liverpool singer-songwriter of working-class folk and acoustic anthems, plays an intimate show at The Wardrobe.
Jamie Webster is back at The Wardrobe on Thursday 3 December, his first Leeds date since his last run through the city. He's a Liverpool singer-songwriter who's built his name on working-class folk and acoustic anthems, and this is an intimate show rather than a big room, so you'll be close to the stage for the whole set.
His sound is hard to pin to one spot, and that's part of the draw. It sits somewhere between alternative and indie, and country and folk, and he describes it as anthemic folk-rock. The folk side comes through in the acoustic foundations, while the rock side gives it the lift that carries those anthems. It's music that works as well in a quiet room as it does when a crowd gets behind it.
Webster is known for his working-class folk, and that's the thread that runs through his writing. He's an iconic figure in the Liverpool scene, and this is one of those nights where he brings that sound over to Leeds for a single, focused show. It's just him on the bill, so the evening is built around his set from start to finish.
