Nick Harper

Son of the legendary UK singer-songwriter Roy Harper, and former member of Squeeze, Nick Harper has been playing guitar from age 10, and surrounded by the likes of Keith Moon, Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, and Dave Gilmour growing up, it's no surprise Nick has become the musician he is today.

In 1996 Nick met Squeeze front-man and songwriter Glenn Tilbrook. Tilbrook was so impressed that he offered Nick a job playing with and supporting Squeeze and promptly signed Nick to his own label, Quixotic Records. Following tours in the UK, USA, and Japan, Nick recorded the 1998 album Smithereens with Tilbrook as producer. This album and subsequent 40 date solo tour, including dates in New York and Glastonbury, confirmed Nick as a formidable talent in his own right. He teamed up with Tilbrook again on 2000's highly acclaimed album Harperspace. This is the album that confirmed his position at the forefront of a new generation of British acoustic performers.
