Nick Drake Night previews and reviews

Last weekend's Nick Drake tribute night at Trinity St. Paul's United Church was a very special evening for everyone involved, and the culmination of months of work for me. To be able to present Nick's songs in one of Toronto's finest and most atmospheric concert venues, with an amazing double quartet, the City's finest backing band and a host of the most accomplished singer/songwriters was the realization of a long-held dream for me. The only thing missing was Robert Kirby, and I think we did him proud that night. It was really special to have his son Henry in attendance and to have such a fantastic and appreciative audience there to experience this unique concert.

Nick Drake Tribute Night in Toronto on Sunday November 28th

Luke is producing, promoting and presenting a Nick Drake tribute night on Sunday November 28th at Trinity St. Paul's United Church in Toronto. It's a benefit for the Centre For Addiction And Mental Health and it's going to be a very special night of music.

This show was originally planned for last November with Nick Drake's string arranger Robert Kirby flying in from London to conduct the strings, but he passed away unexpectedly a week before Luke was to announce the show.

One year on Luke has decided it would be a fitting tribute to both Nick and Robert to go ahead with the show, and Robert’s son Henry Kirby has generously donated use of the string arrangements for Nick's songs for the night, and he will also be in attendance.

There will be a string octet led by Kevin Fox, and performances by Emm Gryner, Stephen Fearing, Kevin Kane (Grapes Of Wrath), Tom Wilson, Mary Margaret O'Hara, David Celia, Luke and a special mystery guest. The house band is Kurt Swinghammer, Maury Lafoy and Don Kerr.

Tickets are $35 each and can be bought online at tickerpro.ca or in person at Soundscapes, Sonic Boom, Rotate This or She Said Boom on Roncesvalles Ave.
