Voted "Young Artist of the Year" at the UK Blues Awards for three consecutive years (2020, 2021, and 2022) as well as winning the 2025 "Traditional Blues Artist of the Year" award, his 2023 self-titled debut was 'MOJO Magazine Blues Album of the Year'; an album that has already clocked up over 2 million streams and support from BBC Radio 2's Cerys Matthews, as well as magazines such as Classic Rock, Guitarist, the blues world and beyond.​Having secured the top prize at Blackpool Blues Festival’s 2025 Introducing Stage, Thomas Heppell has quickly become a fixture on the Blues (and more) festival stages, alongside achieving chart recognition with his record releases, underpinned by national BBC and Planet Rock radio airplay, and multiple nominations at the UK Blues Awards. To have both artists performing in the intimate surroundings upstairs at the Anchor is another exclusive coup in the finest traditions of the Anchor Sessions.
