Brooke Combe
King Tut’s Stage
Brooke Combe’s Sunday set on the King Tut’s stage closed the weekend with a powerful wave of soul, leaving the crowd buzzing long after the final note.
Her passion for soul music — and her mission to make the UK soulful again — shone through every moment. Backed by a dynamic band, Brooke’s stage presence was magnetic. The energy was contagious; everywhere you looked, people were dancing, moving, and completely immersed in the performance.
Live, her vocals are nothing short of breathtaking: crisp yet raw, smooth yet commanding. There’s a richness and uniqueness to her voice that captivates instantly, and when paired with the strength of her band, the result is a true soulful powerhouse.
Personally, I hadn’t connected much with soul music before, but Brooke completely changed that. Her songs — like “Miss Me Now” and “How Can I Tell You” — hooked me from the very first listen. The combination of her storytelling lyrics and her heartfelt delivery makes the music feel both intimate and powerful. Watching her live was not just a performance, but an introduction to the beauty of soul music itself.
If you’re a fan of artists like Leon Bridges or Michael Kiwanuka, Brooke Combe is an essential addition to your playlist. With her upcoming support slot on Benson Boone’s US tour, there’s little doubt she’s on track to become a major name in music.
