John Etheridge is one of the world’s most respected guitarists and his music spans a myriad of styles and influences. He was the guitarist for the celebrated jazz violinist Stephane Grappelli and he has also performed with Soft Machine, Pat Metheny, Andy Summers, Nigel Kennedy and is currently in a duo with the eminent classical guitarist John Williams. This is a rare opportunity to see John performing a solo concert, which features tracks from his highly acclaimed new album I didn’t know.

"I never wanted to be a star, just a highly respected musician like John Etheridge."
Sting

Kit Holmes is John’s special guest on this tour - The Observer described her music ‘as Macy Gray meets Nick Drake,’ and both Bob Harris and Andy Kershaw have featured Kit on their BBC shows. Her trademark sultry vocals and virtuoso guitar playing have wowed audiences across the UK. Kit’s latest album, featuring Danny Thompson, received a five star review from the roots magazine, Maverick.
