All the best to all of you as 2025 comes to an end… and while the world goes ever more crazy, I have slightly guiltily had one of the best professional and public years of my life… Master of the Open University, an emotional tour with Roy, chart success, it’s been amazing…
And 2025 was the right time for the release of 58 Fordwych Rd. A torch-carrying work of love for the generations of pioneering musicians before me who fed into Harperspace via an old address. Tinged with nostalgia but real affection… I am so proud of how it turned out, and with the reaction to it including Top 3 UK Folk Chart status…
Who knows what the new year will bring? Well, I am writing again now - darker things - but I’m still obsessed, enthused and alight with the lust to create. And this foment of possibilities is only made possible by you and the support you have given me… I am so happy to still be making music and so grateful for all the support you've all shown me this year and all the others before.
Finally, I will be back on the road paying my respects to Fordwych Rd. for the next few months, and I’d love if you would join me… all the dates are below, with ticket links via my LinkTree…
Happy holidays Harpernauts! All my thanks again, and see you out there in 2026… Nick x
