The ‘Kinks Akoustik’ Show - Featuring The Songs and Stories of the Kinks.

A solo, acoustic performance of their hits and other great songs, from their earliest days to their demise in 1996.

Not just for the die-hard fan, a good fun show and singalong.

Ideal for pubs, clubs, venues, parties, festivals or as support to other tribute bands.

Songs included are: Sunny Afternoon; Dedicated Follower of Fashion; Day; Lola; Waterloo Sunset; All Day and all of the Night; Tired of Waiting; Apeman; Scattered; Come Dancing;  Low Budget; Stop Your Sobbing; David Watts; Strange Effect;  Walter; ; Alcohol; Death of a Clown; You Really Got Me; and many more

• The show can be over 2 hours in duration and featuring approximately 30 Kinks songs plus stories gleaned from the various autobiographies and biographies.  It is not just a dry lecture, it is humours and could be retitled ‘How not to behave as a Rock band’! A great singalong.

• Upbeat and entertaining, a great sing-along and not just for the die-hard Kinks fans. 

• The show had its first performance at ‘The Kinks’ Room in the The Clissold Arms, Fortis Green N2 - the pub opposite the house where the Davies family grew up, and where the boys did their first gigs.

  The ‘Kinks Akoustik’ Songs - PLUS other songs of the 60s, 70s and 80s.

• The show features the ‘Hits of the Kinks’ mixed in with other songs from the Golden Age of Rock and Pop.

“We were thrilled to hear so many great Kinks tunes floating out of their room and to see so many people enjoying getting involved!” Management of the Clissold Arms (The Home of the Kinks pub in North Finchley)

“Really enjoyed last Friday night.  Found it very entertaining and learnt a lot that I didn’t previously know!” Email from Alan M.

Graham, a long term fan of the band since he saw them a long time ago at the Festival Hall, came up with the idea after talking to a guy after performing a couple of Kinks songs in a pub gig and the man said “I know all the Kinks songs” and proceeded to list 4! He also assumed they had disappeared around 1968, so it was decided the story had to be told. Graham, a song-writer himself, has spent a week with Ray Davies at a song-writing workshop run by the Arvon Arts Charity.

I recently performed a ‘Kinks Akoustik’ show at Rosslyn Court, Margate, in front of a small socially distanced audience. Click here for a video of the performance (I start around the 10minute mark).
