Expected Release 26th September 2025

Nick Harper announces new tour and album '58 Fordwych Rd.', out September 26th - On deluxe full show CD and a "standard" CD/LP with the between-song banter edited out and two bootleg versions from the show.

It is nothing short of criminal, that NICK HARPER is one the UK's best kept musical secrets. Those who have witnessed the spellbinding, one-man show will tell you this. A childhood growing up surrounded by the musical prowess of some of the 60's most revered songwriters & musicians, not to mention being son of Roy Harper, along with 20 years of crafting songs & touring the land has spawned a truly one-off, original guitarist & songwriter who stands alone as a UK great, to be cherished & revered.

Following a prolific creative chapter that has seen three studio releases since 2020, Nick returns to the setting of his father's living room in a small flat in Kilburn, London in the mid 1960s '58 Fordwych Rd.'. The flat was an after hours hang-out for the legends who played at Les Cousins in Soho at the height of the acoustic explosion in swingin' sixties London. People like Bert Jansch, Davy Graham, John Renbourn, Paul Simon, Marc Bolan, David Bowie, Sandy Denny & others dropped in, to drop out, jam & try new tunes. But, all along, there was someone else there... a toddler, part of the family, inhaling the music & absorbing the vibe; Roy's young son, Nick Harper. Nick invited these acoustic legends back into the room and toured this unique story to ecstatic receptions across the UK and Ireland, picking up an award for Best Music at The Edinburgh fringe along the way. The craftsmanship and care of the repertoire ensures this is no mere tribute act, Nick applying his own twists and deft performance swagger that only those who've earned their stripes possess. During a week-long residency at Edinburgh Fringe Festival, '58 Fordwych Rd.' was recorded, capturing Nick at the height of his performing prowess. 

In 2025 Nick finds himself alongside Roy, headlining Glastonbury Festival and on sideman duty at a trilogy of farewell concert hall shows. The narrative of '58 Fordwych Rd.' continues to reverberate and so the live album of the same name had to see a release. The recording and show sees Nick delve into the deluge of songs he heard directly from the greats when growing up. Within, he plays tribute to the time, the place & to the music that became the centre of everything for him & the rest of this 'family'.
