NICK HARPER
+ PATRICK DUFF + WHELLIGANWelcome to Harperspace. We are thrilled to be welcoming acclaimed guitarist Nick Harper onto our stage this autumn. 2023 is the year that sees Nick Harper jettison his normally aspirated time machine which clocks in at just 60 minutes per hour, for a model that can appear anywhere at any time in the many portals of Harperspace. Back with a new, uniquely styled, acoustically driven album (release tbc) and tour, Nick explores the past, present and future over the soundwaves in his own singular way.
Support on the night comes from Patrick Duff, who fronted cult 90s group Strangelove. Now a celebrated writer, Duff has been touring under his own name specialising in intimate evenings of reading and song.
Tickets on sale now.
Nick’s new project follows up recent successful sojourns back in time to explore swinging 60s London (58 Fordwych Rd); 19th century fantasy literature and 1980s West Country romance (Phantastes) and an epic poem lost in time (A Wiltshire Tale).
Will this be the one album to unite them all? Only time will tell.
"Harper has so much musicianship in him it just leaks out all over the place." - The Times
