SUMMARY:BOO HEWERDINE              £20 On The Door - Cheaper in advance
LOCATION:Penistone Cubley Hall Hotel
DESCRIPTION:Support TBC - Boo Hewerdine is widely regarded as a songwriting
  legend\, an artist with a musical CV of international collaborations and 
 hit songs that stretch over two decades and many genres. Universally accla
 imed as one of Britain’s finest songwriters\, he has over one thousand p
 ublished songs to his name.In his teens\, even before he could play an ins
 trument\, Hewerdine would approach local bands and tell them that he had w
 ritten a song for them. “I’d just go round their house and sing at the
 m\,” he says. “I got such a buzz off that. And some of them would do m
 y songs\, amazingly.” It taught him\, right from the start\, that songs
 \, once written\, could leave their author and have a life all of their ow
 n. He loved how songs came from nothing\, and how short they were\, and wh
 at they could do to people.The life and career Hewerdine now has first beg
 an to blossom with the group he formed in the mid-Eighties\, The Bible. Tw
 o of their finest songs\, Graceland and Honey Be Good\, came tantalisingly
  close to becoming huge hits. (A third\, Glorybound\, is one of the record
 ings about which Nick Hornby rhapsodises in his book 31 Songs.) Boo now wi
 shes he could have enjoyed The Bible’s time on the verge of success a li
 ttle more. And some things take years to seem funny. The Bible first decid
 ed to disband after being flown over to Germany to perform Honey Be Good o
 n – they belatedly discovered – a talent show. A man who wore a bowtie
  with lights on that spun round\, and who went by the name of Mr Gadget\, 
 won with 140\,000 votes. The Bible were told that they had received twelve
  votes. “We all took it so personally that we split up\,” says Boo.Tha
 nkfully undeterred from leaving music behind altogether\, Hewerdine went o
 n to write and work with a wide range of artists including Eddi Reader\, K
 D Lang\, Natalie Imbruglia\, Chris Difford (Squeeze)\, Justin Currie (Del 
 Amitri)\, Heidi Talbot\, John McCusker\, Kris Drever\, Brian Kennedy and T
 he Corrs. That’s quite a mix of styles\, and Hewerdine is aware of the t
 ension\, particularly when collaborating with “pop” names. “It’s j
 ust I quite enjoy the Brill Building aspect. I enjoy it because it’s not
  what I do.”Hewerdine’s solo live shows are a magical mix of fantastic
  music\, great stories and beautiful lyrics. “At my gigs people cry a lo
 t\,” says Boo. “Not necessarily because they’re miserable. Maybe it 
 touches them. With songs\, the subject matter’s not the most important t
 hing – I just like to pinpoint something. It’s more that feeling. You 
 don’t have to be specific or breast-beating or anything like that. They 
 know what I’m talking about. I sometimes try to write a song about ridic
 ulous things because I don’t think the subject matter is as important as
  the feeling. When it’s right\, there’s a sense of something.”\n\nBo
