Nick Drake is one of the most beloved and revered of all this country’s singer-songwriters, having given us timeless songs that shed all the tears of life within their fragile yet perfect lines. Between 1969 and 1972, he recorded three cherished albums, though he remained largely unknown during his lifetime and his music almost disappeared into obscurity following his untimely death in 1974.
Now, thanks to a massive resurgence of interest and a worldwide re-evaluation of his genius, Nick Drake has become a national treasure.
It has been two decades since singer and guitarist Keith James first captivated the nation with his breath-taking series of concerts dedicated to Nick Drake's music. He was the first artist ever to bring this intriguingly fragile music to theatres and arts venues across the UK, presenting it in its pure, live form.
The result was six years of highly acclaimed tours amounting to over 1,000 concerts in venues across the UK, Ireland, Holland, France, Italy and Spain, including all of Nick’s schools and colleges and even Glastonbury Festival.
