Pink Floyd Night! A special night featuring Frome-based singer/songwriter James Hollingsworth's original take on the music of Pink Floyd, marking 50 years since the release of their sublime classic 'Wish You Were Here', also featuring some of his own songs. An all-live uniquely solo show, James uses modern Looping technology, with percussion, voice and guitar effects to build complex arrangements in real time.
Devizine review of James' last visit to the Southgate says it all:
"The pub was absolutely rammed, which is a great compliment to the quality of the music on offer on a wet Friday night... It was a tour de force, a stunning effort of both musical versatility, but also of concentration. How he had the time to smile and raise himself for some inter-song chat was amazing... As the final track died away, James was rewarded with a well-deserved cheer and huge round of applause. And he still had enough gas in the tank to give us an encore. What a performer. He did Devizes proud, and I think Devizes responded with full enthusiasm... Great night, great gig." - Devizine
“True to the music of Pink Floyd, James Hollingsworth brings together the sights and sounds of Dark Side of the Moon in a way that makes you conjure up thoughts of a whole band. With 30 plus instruments and sounds at his disposal his performance goes beyond performer and musician and becomes art in its own right. A performance worth every minute.” - CICCIC, Taunton
