Black Country songwriter Dan Whitehouse returns to Birmingham's Symphony Hall on Sunday 7 December 2025 for a very special end-of-year performance.

For one night only, Dan has brought together a hand-picked band of exceptional artists from several of his musical projects, past and present: percussionist Alex Lowe, Geneva-based jazz pianist David O’Brien, and songwriter/guitarist Chris Cleverley.

Also joining the line-up is internationally renowned award-winning poet and beatboxer Jasmine Gardosi.

Under the title End Of Year Review, the concert will see Dan perform songs and recount stories from his acclaimed Voices From The Cones project, which explored the Black Country's industrial past, and the reflective The Glass Age. He’ll also be airing his new festive single Bells Of Brierley Hill (out Nov 11), which is inspired by a true story, and tease material from his forthcoming studio album, Only Love (due early 2026).

In addition, the night will also see Dan and Jasmine première their own joint collaborations, including the haunting After The Black - a song born out of the Diva Dudley community project which reimagines the Black Country as both a place and a person.

Wolverhampton born and bred, Dan Whitehouse is one of the region's most respected songwriters and musicians. Praised for his honesty and warmth by everyone from The Guardian and The Sunday Times to KLOF and Folk On Foot, his recent collaborations include Ten Steps with Grammy-nominated New York dulcimer player Max ZT, and The Glass Age, with Swedish multi-instrumentalist and producer Gustaf Ljunggren.

Jasmine Gardosi’s appearance marks the first in the city since the October release of the track Dancing To Music You Hate. The gig tops off a remarkable year for Birmingham’s first ever openly queer Poet Laureate, who has stepped boldly from poetry into music with three acclaimed single releases this year.

Dan Whitehouse: End of Year Review, with special guest Jasmine Gardosi, is on Sunday 7 December 2025 at Symphony Hall, Birmingham. For tickets and more information, see: dan-whitehouse.com
