Emerging from the Scottish folk scene of the late 1960’s, Barbara had enjoyed mainstream chart success with hits including ‘Answer Me’, ‘Another Suitcase in Another Hall’, ‘Caravan’ and the million-selling number one single, ‘I Know Him So Well’. Nick Holland joined Barbara’s touring band in the mid 2000’s playing keyboards and they have recently started working as a ‘duo’ where she plays guitar and piano, with Nick adding keys and harmonies to Barbara’s own wonderful vocals.
A lovely evening of songs and storytelling from Barbara and Nick. The duo kept the small, but enthusiastic audience enthralled with their beautiful stripped back arrangements. I was also impressed with the team and facilities at the Medina Theatre, a really good contemporary performance space with a surprisingly good sound system too! Top night out!
