Music News put it plainly: “I haven’t heard anyone with a voice like Sean Webster.” Nine studio albums, BBC Radio 2 sessions and stages across three continents later — he’s bringing his full band to The Old Brewery Store, Faversham.
A young Sean Webster’s life changed forever when a friend introduced him to the blues greats — the three Kings: Albert, BB and Freddy — along with Robert Cray, Buddy Guy and Gary Moore. But it was the legendary Eric Clapton whose playing became the primary reason Webster never put the guitar down. That obsession has since fuelled nine studio albums and a touring life spanning venues and festivals across America and Europe.
Webster’s instantly recognisable voice, coupled with his heartfelt melodic guitar playing, has become the defining feature of every release. His blues-inflected guitar licks and weathered soul-shouter vocals are always passionately delivered across tightly arranged songs.
Webster has never been one for following trends or bowing to blues purism. His heart is worn firmly on his sleeve — personal trials released in the form of song, creating a direct and genuine connection with his audience. A strong blues vein runs through all of his original music, done so without sacrificing a modern approach and sound.
His 2026 release, Light of Day — his ninth studio album — is widely regarded as some of Sean’s best work. Pushing himself into entirely new territory (new song keys, new chord structures, a new approach to lyrics), he draws on personal experience, world issues and life changes to create something that reviewers have heralded as the work of an artist at the very top of his game.
Britain’s leading blues magazine Blues Matters! described his debut album as “A real gem” and noted he was “set for big stages with superb guitar work.”
Music News declared: “I haven’t heard anyone with a voice like Sean Webster; it’s a wonder that he isn’t being hailed as a Blues superstar.”
At the Great British R&B Festival in Colne, organisers said: “Sean is a new legend in the making” and “these are Sean Webster’s years, and he is in his ascendancy.”
The editor of Where’s Eric! — the official Eric Clapton magazine — featured Sean as “The One to Watch.”

“Blues-rock guitarist Sean Webster brings his full band to The Old Brewery Store, Faversham, for a night of searing guitar work, heartfelt original songs and a voice that can make you laugh, smile, sing and cry — all in the same hour.”
Webster’s blues-inflected guitar licks and weathered soul-shouter vocals are always passionately delivered across tightly arranged original songs — personal trials turned into music that lands hard and stays long. Expect tracks from across his nine-album catalogue alongside a few well-chosen covers, all delivered by a tight band who clearly love every second they spend on stage.
With its industrial charm, vaulted ceilings, and a character no purpose-built venue can replicate, The Old Brewery Store provides the perfect atmospheric backdrop for a night like this.
With a capacity of 250, the room strikes that rare balance between grand and intimate — big enough to create real atmosphere, small enough that you’re never far from the stage. Whether you’re at the front or grabbing a pint of locally brewed Shepherd Neame at the bar, you’re guaranteed an immersive experience in one of Kent’s most unique live music spaces — and one of the very best for live music in Faversham.
