In July's second outing we reflect on the life and work of enigmatic songwriter Nick Drake through Tanworth in Arden's annual celebratory gathering, we go back to the show's roots as we catch up with Switch prior to the band's sunset performance at the MAC and there's time for murder by way of Graeme Rose's innovative theatre piece 'Fred Jeffs: The Sweetshop Murder'.
With thanks to:
Switch (The band), The Warriors, Dan Whitehouse, Holly Radford, Youth Music and all at MAC Birmingham.
Graeme Rose, The Rep Birmingham and staff at Thimblemill Librbary.
Phillip Littleford, Peter Rice & all at The Nick Drake Gathering 2018.
Switch and the 'MAC Makes Music' project are part of the Alliance for a Musically Inclusive England. The work has been made possible by funding from the National Lottery via Arts Council England
