John Bramwell of I Am Kloot

Thursday 24 September 2026

As the singer in I Am Kloot from 1999 to 2014, John Bramwell embarked on numerous UK and European tours, achieved a Mercury Prize nomination for 2010’s 'The Sky At Night' and reached a Top 10 chart position for 2013’s 'Let It All In'. Now, as a solo artist, Bramwell travels a very different path, one that criss-crosses the length and breadth of the UK with a humble agenda of taking his heart-warming songs to the stage, and enjoying another moment in time with his devoted fans.

In 2023, Bramwell released his sophomore solo album, ‘The Light Fantastic’. It is an almost complete u-turn from the I Am Kloot outlook that Bramwell is known for. Darker clouds banished, and in replacement strings, four-part harmonies (a warming development, since Kloot never had any backing vocals), and a dozen gloriously exhilarating, beautifully crafted and observed songs about life, humanity, the universe and everything. As John put it, “It’s been great to find the joy of making music once again. These are the most uplifting songs of my career.”

‘Bramwell’s new songs are spellbinding’

The Guardian

Bramwell has received unanimous praise from the UK press for the album, but it is the all-encapsulating live show where he conjures up his true magic as songwriter and performer. Expect his razor sharp wit, on the line and refreshingly true (and often hilarious) observations, and his instantly recognisable haunting vocals as he performs live at the Marine this September.
