Author and musician Tom Kitching launches his new book and album, Where There’s Brass, with a special storytelling and music concert tour that’s mooring for the night at the Music Room on Sunday 9th June 2024.
Documenting six months living in the London waterways community, making the long journey across England from Manchester on a traditional narrowboat built in 1937, Where There’s Brass tells the story of the contemporary London waterways – a floating slum at worst, a bohemian, alternative, vibrant community at best.
It is a love letter to the waterways, and a rallying cry for what they can be in the future.
Stories old and new are interwoven with a specially composed suite of music, underpinned by Tom’s long-term accompanist, the brilliant Nordic mandola player Marit Fält.
Tickets for this show are £16 and £19 from liverpoolphil.com
