Rootsclub@DeSchalm

Mercy John's songs are characterized by a personal story, a story he also likes to tell in small acoustic settings, making the songs even more impactful.

Get ready for an evening full of delicious roots music, a warm voice, and the finest songs from his repertoire. 

Both his debut album This Ain't New York and its successors Let It Go Easy and Nights on Fire received unanimous great reviews from the Dutch press and the audience.

Quotes
His acoustic sound, the screaming guitars, the always tight pace, great dynamics, warm voice, howling lap steel and the Hammond, which serves as a shoulder, the sincere lyrics full of self-criticism - it's so beautiful.' - OOR magazine

'Only listen to the subtly folded instrumentations, layered vocals and discreetly howling pedal-steel guitars of the title track, and you know it's good.' - Volkskrant

During this evening at De Schalm, Mercy John will be accompanied by his pianist Kirsten Boersma.
