SUMMARY:Elusive Eric by Jane Hughes - author talk
DESCRIPTION:Jane Hughes will be talking with friend and author\, Felice Hardy\, about Jane’s new book\, ‘Elusive Eric’.\nAn old box containing a few family mementos included a photograph of a handsome young man\, named Eric\, dated 1935. On its reverse Eric had written a message to his sister. Even though it was known that he was a close relative\, no one knew anything about him. And so the quest began to discover his story – one of separation\, bravery\, recklessness – a gripping story of a young man’s determination to combat forces beyond his control. \nA poignant story of forced adoption\, the importance of home\, belonging\, and its generational repercussions. \nThe event is free but booking a place is essential – please book via this link. \nThis free author talk will take place in the Naval room\, upstairs at the Archangel and is organised by the Frome Writers Collective.\nDoors 7pm\nTalk 7.30-9pm

SUMMARY:John Bramwell – Live At The Tree House
DESCRIPTION:“There’s a line in the E.E. Cummings poem Somewhere I Have Never Travelled\, Gladly Beyond — ‘No one\, not even the rain\, has such small hands’ — which I once paraphrased to ‘Nothing can wash this away\, not even the rain.’ I’ve always loved that sense of mystery and magic… I’ve never been a realist.” – John Bramwell\, 2026 \nAs the voice of I Am Kloot (1999–2014)\, John Bramwell earned a Mercury Prize nomination for The Sky At Night (2010)\, a Top 10 album with Let It All In (2013)\, and a farewell orchestral show at London’s Queen Elizabeth Hall. \nNow pursuing a solo path\, Bramwell continues to tour extensively\, bringing his heartfelt songs and razor-sharp wit to devoted audiences across the UK. \nHis acclaimed 2023 album The Light Fantastic marked a joyful departure from Kloot’s darker tone\, embracing harmonies\, strings\, and uplifting reflections on life and humanity. “These are the most uplifting songs of my career\,” Bramwell says. \nCelebrated for his captivating live performances and warm\, mischievous humour\, Bramwell remains one of the UK’s most distinctive songwriters. In 2025\, God Is In The TV called his Beautiful Days set “the highlight of the weekend.” \nLooking ahead to 2026\, Bramwell embarks on an expansive tour of Ireland and the UK\, continuing his remarkable musical journey. \nPraise for The Light Fantastic\n“Beautiful harmonies.” – CLASH\n“Wonderfully grown-up pop.” – ★★★★ MOJO\n“Hazy\, purposeful\, and very pretty.” – ★★★★ The Times\n“A splendid solo set.” – UNCUT \nPrevious Acclaim\n“A unique voice.” – Lauren Laverne\n“Spellbinding songs.” – The Guardian\n“My favourite songwriter of all time.” – Cate Blanchett\n“The UK’s finest export.” – The New York Times \nPlease note this is an all-standing 18+ event\, and the venue is accessed by stairs with no lift.

This was their first Slow Sunday- here’s to many more!’\nLynda\, Slow Sunday Guest\, June 2025. \n‘A group of 6 of us attended 42Acres Slow Sunday and we all throughly enjoyed ourselves. The land is beautiful\, with lots of lovely quiet trails to walk and soak it all up. We even spotted storks\, buzzards and believe we may have accidentally bumped into a wild boar too.

SUMMARY:EMF
DESCRIPTION:“EMF are a band reborn. The power of their reunion albums\, combined with their obvious camaraderie\, makes their shows something to treasure. As life-affirming live as they are on record\, make sure you catch EMF in person.” – Sonic Abuse\, 2024 \nFormed in 1989 in the quiet town of Cinderford\, EMF burst onto the global stage with their infectious mix of dance\, rock\, and pop. Within a year\, they conquered the charts with “Unbelievable\,” a generation-defining hit. \nTheir debut Schubert Dip (1991) captured their raw\, genre-bending sound\, followed by Stigma (1992) and Cha Cha Cha (1995)\, which delved into darker territory before the band took a break. Along the way\, they released a hit cover of The Monkees’ “I’m a Believer” with comedians Vic and Bob. \nDuring their hiatus\, members pursued new paths — James Atkin went solo and taught music\, Ian Dench became an acclaimed songwriter and executive\, Derry Brownson launched Little Killers\, and Zac Foley joined Carrie. \nA 2001 reunion for The Best of EMF: Epsom Mad Funkers hinted at a full comeback\, but Zac’s sudden passing in 2002 halted plans. Sporadic shows followed\, including a 2012 live video revisiting Schubert Dip and Stigma. \nIn 2020\, EMF truly reignited with the 30th-anniversary box set From Us to You. Renewed inspiration led to Go Go Sapiens (2022) and the acclaimed The Beauty and the Chaos (2024)\, solidifying their modern resurgence. \nIn 2025\, a blue plaque in Cinderford honoured their legacy — a symbol of the pride they bring to the Forest of Dean. Now\, EMF are not just back\, they’re thriving. Still creating\, still touring\, and still charged with the same life-affirming energy that made them unforgettable.
