Combining their original material with songs by the likes of Jaques Brel, Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen and Eartha Kitt, Moscow Drug Club deliver an intoxicating and intimate musical experience. Tickets from £12
Nick Harper: Aaand.. We’re Back In The Room
Friday 12th November
Aaand... We’re Back In The Room celebrates Nick Harper, an acoustic guitar and songs from all of his albums down the years. If you’ve never heard of Nick, we’re not surprised, because he’s one of the UK's best kept musical secrets! Being the son of English folk rock singer, Roy Harper, meant he grew up surrounded by the musical prowess of some of the 60's most revered songwriters and musicians. His childhood, along with 20 years of crafting songs, has spawned this truly one-off show. Tickets from £12
The Paul Simon Story
Saturday 13th November
Paul Simon is a name that has cemented itself into the “hearts and bones” of audiences all over the world. As an artist, his name has become synonymous, not only with music, but with cultural history. He has many millions of fans, but one fan, Gary Edward Jones, has turned his love and admiration into a show - The Paul Simon Story!
Singer-songwriter Gary not only recites the music of one of his idols, but also tells the unique story of Paul Simon combining visuals, stage design and, of course… the music. At Salisbury Playhouse. Tickets from £12
Jazz Dynamos – Jazz ‘n’ 80s
Friday 10th December
As part of the festive line-up at Salisbury Arts Centre this year, Jazz Dynamos take well known songs from the 1970s and ‘80s and transform them with a mix of jazz, bossa, and samba – occasionally all at the same time! Their unique set of original, contemporary jazz arrangements includes hits by, amongst others, Dolly Parton, Madonna, U2, Police, a-ha and Britney Spears. What better way to start the Christmas countdown. Tickets from £15.50
