Live music at The Pulpit: Ferbache & Fry

We are excited to be able to again bring the uber-talented frontman of British Blues legends The Achievers, Steve Ferbrache, back to Swindon once again with his pals (it will be a bit of a squeeze!)

Steve Ferbrache (guitar & vocals) and Rufus Fry (Harmonica) are founding members of the award winning Blues/Roots band The Achievers, together at last doing a ‘bit on the side’. Gritty Blues, Swinging Roots, Country, Gospel. Americana, Bluegrass and plenty more Folksy Gubbins. They’ll be joined on double bass by Jack Thomas.

Saved from a route to ruin in his teens by the folk clubs of North Wales and later taken around the world by his award winning Americana/Roots band The Achievers, Steve Ferbrache has some stories to tell.

Poetically articulate songwriting and highly-accomplished, unobtrusive finger-style guitar Seve draws influences from both traditional British folk music and American roots & old-time styles. His songs are driven by message and melody and are often disarmingly open. Steve Ferbrache is committed to leaving audiences better than he found them – even after they’ve explored some of the toughest aspects of life together.
