SONGWRITER, virtuoso guitarist and pianist Nils Lofgren performs at The Anvil, Basingstoke, on Tuesday, January 20 at 8pm with very special guest Greg Varlotta.

After touring with Bruce Springsteen as a longtime member of the E Street Band on both the 2012- 13 Wrecking Ball tour and the 2014 High Hopes tour, Nils Lofgren is back to perform his own live show.

Known for his world-class guitar playing, and his on-stage acrobatics, Nils Lofgren is a true rock legend and a superb front-man, both with his band Grin and under his own name.

Recently inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Nils released Face the Music, a 10 disc retrospective box set of his 45 years of recording, in August.

Nils will be joined for an acoustic set by multiinstrumentalist Greg Varlotta. Expect Lofgren favourites such as Shine Silently, I Came to Dance, Keith Don't Go and many others from his vast back catalogue.

Tickets for Nils Lofgren are priced at £29.50 and £39.50 (all tickets include £1 booking fee). For more information or for tickets, call the Anvil Arts box office on 01256 844244, or book on line at anvilarts.org.uk.
