Spokesman Nick Cant said: “Brooks Williams attracted a good size audience when he last came to us in 2023.

“Statesboro, Georgia-born, Cambridge, England-based guitarist singer and songwriter Brooks Williams is admired by both listeners and fellow musicians alike.

“With over 33 recordings to his name, and countless concert and festival appearances, he has been a leading light on the roots acoustic music scene for three decades.

“He moves effortlessly between country-blues and folk-Americana and is not only a master songwriter but also a mighty song interpreter. WUMB-FM Boston names him as one of their Top 100 All-Time Artists and he's listed in the Top 100 Acoustic Guitarists. When not touring solo, Brooks tours with ace fiddler, Aaron Catlow. Another popular collaboration is with banjoist Dan Walsh.

“Whether Brooks is solo or collaborating with acoustic music legends like Hans Theessink, Sloan Wainwright, Guy Davis, Vera van Herringen, Boo Hewerdine or the late great Rab Noakes, to name but a few, his shows are legendary.

“Highlights in 2026-2027 include Williams' stunning collaboration with the amazing Aaron Catlow. The duo has just released their fourth recording, and their concerts delight audiences throughout the country.”
