John Adams

John Adams plays The Stables on Sunday 1 November, with Chloe Wilson supporting. It's an 8:45pm start on Stage 2, so it's a late one for a Sunday night.

Adams is a Welsh singer-songwriter whose sound sits somewhere between contemporary pop and the evocative folk he grew up on. He describes his work as stripped-back acoustic arrangements with subtle modern production, and his songs centre on love, connection and vulnerability. It's the sort of music that works as well on a quiet night in as it does in a live room, and he's built a following around the more intimate, quietly captivating side of his live shows.

He's a regular on BBC Radio 2 and has more than 250 million streams across his releases. His music has also cropped up on TV, with tracks featured on Love Island, I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! and The Voice, and recent cuts recorded by Calum Scott. His live performances have earned praise from Clare Balding, Gary Barlow and Carol Vorderman, who described them as 'sensational'.

Chloe Wilson opens the night, and the whole thing runs on Stage 2 at The Stables in Milton Keynes. Tickets are £20, which includes the booking fee, for the 8:45pm start on Sunday 1 November.
