The Songs of Nick Drake performed by Keith James  
Nick Drake is one of the most revered and loved of all this country’s acoustic Singer-Songwriters. He has given us timeless songs that shed all the tears of life within their fragile yet perfect lines. He recorded three cherished albums between 1969 and 1972 but was almost entirely unknown in his day. After his tragic death in 1974 aged only 26 his music almost disappeared into obscurity. Now, thanks to a massive resurgence of interest and a worldwide re-evaluation of his unique music, Nick Drake has become a national treasure. 
Three decades have now passed since Singer/Guitarist Keith James first astonished the whole country with his stunningly beautiful series of concerts. He was the first artist ever to bring these intriguing songs to theatres and arts venues across the UK, and remains to this day, the foremost artist devoted to performing Nick’s music in its pure live acoustic form. Over the past 30 years, Keith has performed over 1200 highly acclaimed concerts in venues across the UK, Ireland, Holland, France, Italy, and Spain including all of Nick’s schools and colleges even Glastonbury Festival. Keith will be joined by flautist Richie Cotterill
‘Musicians brave enough to play the music they really believe in. Keith James is one of these’ Bob Harris OBE 
‘A fresh and powerful approach to these wonderful songs’ Patrick Humphries Nick Drake biographer 
‘Devotion, integrity, experience. All spinning as one’ Guardian 
“An absolute must” Mark Radcliffe
