Nick Harper is a highly accomplished guitarist to whom the term virtuoso truly belongs, yet his guitar playing is only a part of his skill. As well as a distinctive and soulful voice, Nick is the kind of artist who reaffirms faith in the art of original songwriting. Nick was first heard in 1983 when he appeared on his father Roy Harper's collaboration with Jimmy Page. Following that, his first solo release was the ‘Light At The End of The Kennel’ EP in 1994. Nick soon supported Squeeze front man and songwriter Glenn Tilbrook, who was so impressed he offered Nick a job playing with Squeeze and promptly signed him to his own label, Quixotic Records. Following tours across the UK, USA and Japan, wowing audiences from New York to Glastonbury, Nick has developed a reputation for creating great audience rapport, with songs that are both intense and emotionally charged. All this puts him right on the crest of a new wave of Brit acoustic troubadours.
