Brandon McPhee Show
Ages Adults, Teens
Multi-award-winning Brandon McPhee has just completed a series of shows across the length and breadth of Scotland, concluding at Eden Court in Inverness. While touring, Brandon’s version of the Johnny Cash standard “Ring of Fire” in a matter of weeks reached over 1 and a half million views on the internet.
A quiet, pleasant, unassuming young man off-stage, when he steps in front of his audience he is instantly surrounded by a charismatic “ring of fire.” Whether dazzling on the accordion or singing Brandon radiates a warmth instantly felt and reflected back by his audience. Is this the connection, the shared experience that has his fans not just enjoying the show but participating by dancing in the aisles? We expect, indeed take it for granted, that Brandon will deliver great performances both on the button box and singing country. This show was different. He gave the audience what they expect of him, but Brandon not only demonstrated his increasing catalogue of self-penned tunes and songs, but this time he delivered a much more versatile range of material, moving effortlessly through the deep tones of Johnny Cash songs to early 1900s Irish tenor John McCormack then back to Elvis – a widening repertoire underpinned by an increasing vocal range and ability. Brandon McPhee is not just touring; he is on a journey fired by his love of music and performance. It is a delight to observe and join Brandon on his journey.
Also guesting on the show is Manson Grant from Manson Grant and the Dynamos fame as well as part of the Brandon McPhee band.
