Nick Harper returns to Mycenae House with his new show - 58 Fordwych Road. This is an all new show that centres around a living room in a flat in Kilburn, London in the 1960s .
The abode of Nick's father, up and coming singer songwriter Roy Harper and his wife Mocy, this was the after hours hang-out for the legends who played at Les Cousins folk club in Soho at the height of the acoustic explosion in Swinging '60s London.
Artists such as Bert Jansch, Davy Graham, John Renbourn, Paul Simon, Sandy Denny, Marc Bolan and others dropped in, to drop out, jam and try new tunes. But all along, there was someone else there . a toddler, part of the family, inhaling the music and absorbing the vibe; Roy's young son, Nick Harper.
Nick has carved out his own career in music, but in this unique and one-off show he plays tribute to the time, the place and the music that became the centre of everything for him and the rest of his family.
The show runs over two halves. The first will see Nick's interpretations of some of the classic songs he heard direct from the greats when growing up. In the second, Nick will trace the journey of how these luminary figures' music evolved and helped shape popular music beyond the '60s, and revisit the eternal themes that run from then to now in songs of his own fine repertoire.
Be sure to book early - Nick's last show in this intimate 120-seater hall was a sell-out!
