Your Song - Celebrating the Music of Elton John and Billy Joel

A Celebration of the Songs of Elton John and Billy Joel Performed by John Reilly & Lewis Nitikman Following a fantastic gig in the summer of 2023, singer-songwriter John Reilly and Canadian pianist and composer Lewis Nitikman are delighted to return to Kirkgate Arts Centre in Cockermouth, to celebrate not just the music of Elton John but also Billy Joel !! The concert is not a tribute, but a true celebration of the music of these two fabulous musicians. John Reilly, whose albums have received both national and international air play, sings the songs very accurately, but in his own inimitable style and also plays percussion and harmonica, Lewis Nitikman, who is Berkelee trained and has produced 3 gold albums in Canada, plays piano and bass keyboards. This will be a truly unique performance of stunning vocals and outstanding piano, It is totally live, expect to hear all your favourite Elton and Billy tunes including 'Your Song', ‘Piano Man’, 'Daniel', ‘Uptown Girl’, Candle in the Wind', ‘New York State of Mind’ ,'Goodbye Yellow Brick Road' etc., but also one or two you may not be so familiar with. So, once again, this is not a tribute. No dressing up. No miming. No backing tracks!! Just two consummate professionals celebrating amazing, timeless songs performed from the heart in a show that has people on their feet, moved and shouting for more !!
