Danny Bradley

Musician & Songwriter

Touring with Fairport Convention in 2025

‘A one man orchestra… A poetic soul, and a sublime vocal range, reminiscent of the late Jeff Buckley’ - Americana UK

 
Bradley’s finger style guitar accompaniment is a masterclass... covering the fretboard with an effortless, lyrical ease.
— Americana UK
Beautiful finger-style guitar playing and a voice to match... Incredibly strong notes of originality that will resonate with many.

Winner of the Liverpool Acoustic Judges’ Award 2021, Danny is a finger-style guitarist and songwriter who has opened for Martin Carthy, Tony McManus, Jon Gomm, and Jeffrey Foucault. He is touring with Fairport Convention in 2025 as the opening act on their Winter Tour.

Danny’s debut solo album, 'Small Talk Songs', is available now. Danny recorded the album himself, in his Liverpool city centre flat, with three microphones. Throughout the recording process, he opened the door to his little fifth-floor balcony, so that the songs of the Scouse seagulls overhead could be heard lilting quietly in the background of this airy, richly recorded acoustic album.
