Welcome to May 2022! This month sees The Monday Evening Music Walk slot continue with the addition of the four-part series The History Of Rock & Pop in the West End.
The History Of Rock & Pop In the West End is ambitious in its scope and covers the story of popular music from the 1660s right up to the 1990s. You can join me for individual tours or book the whole series.
Click here for the full Monday Evening Music Tour schedule.
Elsewhere on the schedule the Beatlemania! tour gets two outings and my regular Friday jaunt into the story of Rock’n’Roll London is on the 27th at 2pm.
As a heads-up for June & July I’ll be adding a couple of Rolling Stones events to the schedule when the band they couldn’t hang hit London for their Hyde Park shows.
Click the tour titles in the list below for descriptions & booking. All tours are also available as private tours.
