Michael Chapman was a singular voice in British folk and acoustic music — a restless, genre-defying guitarist who drew from folk, blues, jazz, and country to create something entirely his own. Admired by a remarkably wide circle of musicians including David Bowie, Elton John, and Thurston Moore, Chapman spent decades refining a deeply personal sound rooted in the landscapes and spirit of his native Yorkshire. Who's This Yorkshire Guy? Live In Brighton captures him in an intimate live setting at The Greys in Brighton in 2015, offering a rare and unguarded glimpse into his artistry.
This previously unreleased live recording draws from across Chapman's long career, spanning material from his beloved 1970 debut-era work all the way through to recordings from the 2000s and 2010s. The result is a set that feels both reflective and vital, showcasing the warmth and immediacy of his live performances. Released on Earth Recordings as an indie exclusive, this is a meaningful addition for fans of Chapman's work and lovers of deeply rooted acoustic music alike.
