To bring down the curtain on one of his busiest years to date, Liverpool songwriting legend and former Icicle Works frontman ian mcnabb returns to the site of his former school for two special concerts. Liverpool singer-songwriter Ian McNabb
A special aftershow billed as Ian McNabb and Friends Christmas Show will take place on Saturday 10 December at Eric’s on Mathew Street. Entry is free to ticket holders from the Friday and Saturday theatre shows or £5 on door for non ticket holders. From 10 pm till 2 am.
The two concerts will consist of 25 songs each night with no two songs performed twice. Ian has dug deep into his back catalogue to unearth some Icicle Works classics in addition to freshly minted gems and songs from his extensive back catalogue which will be presented in both electric and acoustic arrangements.
Ian says “I’m really looking forward to playing these shows. The annual Christmas show is always a big thrill for me to do but this year is extra special as the venue is on the site of my old school, which will bring back quite a few memories.
These shows should be really special as I’ve dug deep into the archives to find some stuff that I haven’t played for a long time, if ever. There will be the usual standards in there too and possibly a couple of tracks from the album that I’m currently working on at the moment.”
To mark this special event, anyone attending both nights will receive a complimentary CD containing an exclusiveMcNabb song plus the chance to win an exclusive McNabb show in their own home.
Ian McNabb is one of the finest singer-songwriters Britain has produced. Emerging from the 1980’s Liverpool music scene, Ian started a musical journey as songwriter, lead singer and guitar player with The Icicle Works which has taken on many twists and turns. The initial run of hit singles with The Icicle Works (Love Is A Wonderful Colour, Birds Fly, When It All Comes Down, Evangeline, Understanding Jane, Little Girl Lost) has been followed by a distinguished and critically acclaimed solo career, including a Mercury Prize Nomination for the 1994 album ‘Head Like A Rock’ which was recorded with Neil Young’s band ‘Crazy Horse’.
Now in his third decade as a recording artist, Ian continues to write stunning songs with warmth, humour, cynicism and grandeur and continues to tour his unique electric–acoustic show to sold out audiences around the country.
