Nick Harper Brilliant!!! – at the wonderful Ropery in Barton 2014

I’ve seen Nick tens of times in different venues all over the country but rarely as good as this!!

This is a new mature Nick, slightly more restrained, less chaotic and loud. A more thoughtful, humorous Nick.

Right from the start he set up a delightful relationship with the audience who warmed to his anecdotes, asides and humour.

Nick was in fine form, bending notes, doing impossible chords, mad tuning in songs, changing broken strings without pause all complete with a voice that soared into impossible heights. It was magical.

The new songs sounded great as well! And that album is out next week!

If you haven’t seen him recently – look out for him coming your way – it’s not one to miss!!

If you are unfamiliar check out his stuff on Amazon and purchase the great CD ‘Seed’ to begin with. You’ll end up with them all!

Check him out on You-Tube!

45% decline in invertebrates a catastrophe for mankind!

The 45% decline in invertebrates is catastrophic for the environment. Invertebrates form the basis of the food webs for most living organisms. Without invertebrates there is no food for our wild birds or mammals. Our soil is replenished by invertebrates. Our plants are pollinated by them. They are integral to all life on this planet.

The human population has become out of control.

Our use of pesticides has become suicidal.
