Celtic Connections 2015

Having recently finished a 34 date tour with Bruce Springsteen, legendary American songwriter, virtuoso guitarist and pianist, Nils Lofgren returns to the UK in January 2015.

Lofgren's career as a sideman is one of the most illustrious in rock 'n' roll history. Playing alongside Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young, and Ringo Starr, he's toured the world and performed for massive crowds. But, along the way, he's always recorded his own music, building a massive discography.

Recently inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the E Street Band Nils is due to release Face the Music on 5th August 2014, a 10 disc retrospective box set of his 45 years of recording. Nils will be joined for an acoustic set by multi-instrumentalist Greg Varlotta. Expect classic Lofgren favourites like ‘Shine Silently, 'I Came to Dance', 'Keith Don't Go' and many others from his vast back catalogue.

"Nils' singing and guitar playing voice remains as distinctive today as it's ever been" - Bruce Springsteen

"Nils Lofgren is genuinely one of my favourite musicians" - Sting

"Listening to Nils play and sing has been an inspiration to me for many years" - Neil Young
