Tom Bushin
About this event
Join us at The Botanist Exeter for an evening with Tom Bushin, a multi-talented Bristol-based singer-songwriter and producer. With over a decade of live performance experience and a string of festival appearances under his belt, Tom brings genuine artistry and passion to every show. His intimate yet powerful performances blend indie, folk, and acoustic storytelling, elevated by his distinctive harmonica playing and custom stomp box. Whether you're a fan of raw, authentic songwriting or simply looking for a memorable night out, this is your chance to experience a truly independent artist at work.
Tom's upcoming debut album was crafted entirely whilst travelling the UK, and every note you'll hear has been written, recorded, and produced by him alone. His music draws comparisons to artists like Passenger, The Lumineers, and Damien Rice — think soulful vocals, heart-felt lyrics, and melodies that linger long after the final chord. From the rolling hills of Devon and Somerset, Tom has earned a reputation for genuine connection with his audience, having shared stages with acts including Toploader, Scouting for Girls, and Razorlight.
Settle in at The Botanist Exeter with a drink and some good food as Tom takes the stage. Located on High Street in Exeter's Guildhall Shopping Centre, our friendly cocktail bar and restaurant is the perfect setting for live music in the heart of the city.
