Kiki Dee and Carmelo Luggeri

Join us at the Old Lockup, Wirksworth for a special evening in the company of one of the UK's greatest ever vocalists. Kiki Dee, the first female singer from the UK to sign with Motown's Tamla Records and whose musical career spans seven remarkable decades, accompanied by hugely talented guitarist, composer and producer Carmelo Luggeri.

It started out as just another studio day for producer and guitarist, Carmelo Luggeri – until pop legend Kiki Dee came in to put down a vocal …. He’d seen her many times on TV, but once she started singing, he was just blown away by the amazing tone of her unmistakeable voice. Little did he suspect that, from that day on, his musical career was to change for ever.

The late Steve Brown (the man who discovered Elton) told him, ‘There’s something special happening when you play acoustically with Kiki.. you should team up’. Possessed of a great eye for talent, Steve became their mentor.

Carmelo admits: ‘That was the day he got us to turn left’. And now, 25 years on from that epiphany, the synergy between the two has blossomed, firmly establishing them as one of the UK’s great musical pairings.

This is an outdoor show, we have a rain plan but please dress for the weather.
