Pink Floyd Night! We are thrilled to have James perform his one-man tribute to Pink Floyd to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the release of the classic album Dark Side of the Moon (which was 1st March 1973).
The way that guitars are used today is very different from how it was 20 years ago, and now with loop pedals solo guitarists can create music and sounds that can match any band, but this complex and hard to master looping is only mastered by a few and this live music night presents one the best Loopmasters of guitar in the South West.
‘At CICCIC we have delivered over 400 live music events and seen over 700 musicians play here but if you want to see and hear one of the finest musicians/songwriters who can amaze you with the mastery of looping guitars then I strongly recommend you see James perform’ says CICCIC director and programmer Andrew Knutt.
We are very excited to have James Hollingsworth "guitar wizard" - 5 Best gigs - The Independent
Licensed bar available.
Spaces are limited so book early to avoid disappointment or refusal on the door.

An all-live uniquely solo show, James uses modern Looping technology, with live percussion, voice and guitar effects to build complex arrangements in real time, with no pre-recorded backing tracks!
