The Babylon Gallery is hosting a ‘Boo Hewerdine Up Close and Personal’ event as part of Isle of Ely Arts Festival.

The intimate evening with the local singer-songwriter takes place on Friday June 23 and comes ahead of the release of his new album ‘Swimming In Mercury’.

“It is seven years since his last solo album. In the interim he has made albums with Eddi Reader, State Of The Union, Chris Difford and others, written music for the BBC Radio Ballads series and art exhibitions,” say the gallery.

“It’s been a while but it’s been worth the wait,” adds Boo.

Tickets cost £12 for adults and £10 for concessions. To book, call 01353 616991 or visit www.babylonarts.org.uk

Starts 7.30pm.
