ABOUT
Our monthly late night series brings songwriters together to perform in the round, hosted by Matthew Herd. We’re hugely excited to welcome the remarkable James Brute as he returns to his East London stomping ground.
James Brute
James Brute is the band and alter-ego of James Steel, songwriter and frontman of 2000s East London darlings The Brute Chorus. Steel’s musical narratives of love, loss and lust have delved into ever darker and more mysterious regions since the release of debut single Bury Yourself in 2014. The warp and weft of the songs speak to the basest of our human instincts, pulling on themes and characters both ancient and modern; arcane and mundane.
No longer based in London and with an even more rarified group of collaborators, this show offers a rare chance to hear James perform new material and works in progress, unaccompanied in an intimate setting.
