Built on a shared love of story, harmony, and connection, Adam Thom and Alma present a joint tour rooted in contemporary folk and Americana.
The pairing creates a warm live experience that brings together narrative songwriting and rich vocal harmony, ideally suited to venues with audiences for songwriter-led music in the vein of Laura Marling, Joni Mitchell, The Staves, and Jason Isbell. The evening is a co-headline show, with both acts performing a full set. Expect a night that is intimate and song-focused, suited to seated or attentive standing audiences.
Adam Thom
Adam Thom is a 24 year old singer-songwriter, originating from Aberdeen and now based in Glasgow. His intricate, story-driven lyrics are rooted in folk and Americana traditions, and take audiences on an emotive journey with his skilled songwriting.
Adam released his highly anticipated second EP - ‘Through the Candle Smoke and Burning Sage’ - last December, hailed as “an absolute winner” by Americana UK that “put him at the very forefront of the UK’s bluegrass scene”. With recent sold-out shows at The Glad Cafe and Cottier’s Theatre (for Celtic Connections), Adam presents an intimate, well-crafted live performance; not one to be missed.
Alma
Alma are a Glasgow-based folk trio creating harmony-led songs rooted in warmth, honesty, and thoughtful songwriting. Their lush vocal blend draws inspiration from contemporary folk and classic singer-songwriters.
