ADAM BEATTIE with FIONA BEVAN

I first saw Adam Beattie and Fiona Bevan play at St. Christopher's Church in Haslemere, in May 2023. Each accompanied the other as they played and sang and played their own compositions. I enjoyed that gig so much, I booked Adam & Fiona for Grayshott Folk Club on Friday 23rd February 2024!

It’s wonderful to welcome them back again so soon and this gig is one of many Adam and Fiona are playing across the whole of the UK in May and June 2025, having just returned from a highly successful tour in Italy, where their popularity is also growing quickly.

Scottish singer/songwriter and guitarist Adam Beattie is a celebrated artist of the London scene and has toured widely in the UK and throughout Europe. Having roots in Scottish Folk music, and a lifelong interest in old time Jazz and Blues, Adam’s music is defined by his distinctive lyrical voice, narrative lyrics and finger style guitar playing. His current (5th) solo album "Somewhere Round The Bend" has received widespread critical acclaim with Mojo Magazine referring to his: “uplifting reveries of love and loss through romantic balladry” and Loud And Quiet Magazine describing it as: “mesmeric”.

Adam previewed the title track from his upcoming album "Home Fires Burning" at Haslemere and Grayshott and is currently hoping to crowd fund the cost of its recording. He doesn’t want to hurry this project but instead wants to ensure it is the best it can be. That costs a pretty penny............

Fiona Bevan
In the music World, Fiona Bevan is recognised as a highly-accomplished songwriter, achieving a Number 1 album with Kylie Minogue and penning hit songs with household names such as: Ed Sheeran, Lewis Capaldi, Tom Walker, Steps, Dan from Bastille and many more.

Her collaboration with Ed Sheeran, "Little Things" became a Number 1 hit in 13 countries for One Direction.

Fiona is currently writing with Nile Rodgers and working with new artists including Joy Crookes, Zak Abel, Ewan Mainwood, Tom King & Tamzene amongst others.

As well as writing songs, Fiona is also a talented performer, whose unique voice is instantly recognisable. When I saw her perform with Adam in Haslemere, she played Acoustic and Electric Guitars as well as Double Bass. Her songs and performances come straight from the heart and she draws her audience in with her warmth and honesty.

Over many years, Adam and Fiona have been pursuing their own solo careers but since getting together, they have forged a formidable partnership. Adam and Fiona will each showcase a set of their own songs, whilst accompanying the other.
Don't miss this opportunity to see these two very talented young musicians up close and personal, before they start attracting the attention of much bigger venues.
