Way to Blue: Songs of Nick Drake
Nick Drake is one of the most influential and universally praised artists of the 20th century, which could have something to do with the tantalisingly small volume of music created in his musical career, cut short as it was by his tragic death at the age of 26. Twenty-five years later, this concert, curated by his original producer Joe Boyd, celebrates his unique and profound output through reinterpretations of his songs by artists such as Green Gartside, Vashti Bunyan and Teddy Thompson.
