We are delighted to welcome back John Reilly & Lewis Nitikman after their brilliant past concerts performing the songs of Elton John. This time the duo perform a celebration of the songs of both Elton John and Billy Joel.
In July 2022, singer songwriter John Reilly and Canadian pianist and songwriter Lewis Nitikman played Acapela Studio for the first time, celebrating the music of Sir Elton John and were thrilled by the fabulous feedback and wonderful vibe they received from the sell-out audience. This time they are adding some Billy Joel tunes to their repertoire, another songwriter who has had a big influence on their musical careers.
The concert is not a tribute, but a true celebration of the music of Elton John and Billy Joel. John Reilly, whose albums have received both national and international air play, sings the songs very accurately, but in his own inimitable style and also plays percussion and harmonica, Lewis Nitikman, who is Berkelee trained and has produced 3 gold albums in Canada, plays piano and bass keyboards.
This will be a truly unique evening of stunning vocals and outstanding piano, . It is a totally live performance, expect to hear all your favourite Elton and Billy tunes including ‘Your Song’, ‘Piano Man’, ‘Daniel’, ‘Uptown Girl’, Candle in the Wind’, ‘New York State of Mind’ ,’Goodbye Yellow Brick Road’ etc., but also some you may not be so familiar with.
So, once again, this is not a tribute. No dressing up. No miming. No backing tracks!! Just two consummate professionals celebrating amazing, timeless songs performed from the heart in a show that has people on their feet, moved and shouting for more !!
