Son of legendary Roy Harper, Nick is at the forefront of a new generation of British acoustic performers. 'One of the finest guitarists of his generation, his soaring vocal range and propensity for epic song place him somewhere between Rufus Wainwright and Jeff Buckley' (Mojo magazine). Harper is a folk troubadour. An acoustic balladeer. With a touch of rock 'n' roll on the side. As one journalist commented: 'Go and see this man live and then you will fully appreciate the intense virtuosity of his guitar-playing, his soulful singing, the intimate brilliance of his song-writing and the bloody funny way he puts it all across'.

He's not folk. He's emo skiffle. Pastoral hard rock. Progressive soul.
