Tom launches his new book and album, 'Where There's Brass', with a special storytelling and music concert tour. Documenting six months living in the London waterways community, making the long journey across England from Manchester on a traditional narrowboat built in 1937, 'Where There's Brass' tells the story of the contemporary London waterways; a floating slum at worst, a bohemian, alternative, vibrant community at best.
Tom is accompanied by the brilliant Nordic mandola player Marit Fält.
Performing at the museum has special significance for Tom; his mother is a founder member of the Ellesmere Port Boat Museum, and his father attended the opening day rally in 1976 with 'Spey', the boat at the heart of the story.
Performances at 2.00-2.45pm & 3.15-4.00pm Toll House Bar open from 12pm.
