Emily Barker is the award-winning songwriter and performer of the theme to BBC TV’s Wallander starring Kenneth Branagh. Her music is a blend of roots influences from country to English folk via 60s pop.
Alongside the Wallander theme, Emily has also provided the theme music to BBC TV drama The Shadow Line (which won an Ivor Novello for best TV soundtrack for series composer Martin Phipps) and has recently (in collaboration again with Martin Phipps) composed music for Daniel Barber’s The Keeping Room (Sam Worthington, Britt Marling, Hailee Steinfeld) as well as her first feature length soundtrack, for Jake Gavin’s UK road movie Hec McAdam starring Peter Mullan.
Her most recent album is a collection of solo versions of songs from her previous albums: The Toerag Sessions was recorded live to tape at London’s legendary ToeRag Studios with Grammy-winning producer Liam Watson.
Support comes from highly acclaimed singer-songwriter Daisy Vaughan.
Tickets are £10.00 in advance. £11.00 on the door.
