Beyond The Bank Holiday: September & October

Adam writes… It’s been a bumper summer at London Music Tours. As usual, sincere thanks to everyone who joined me this summer.  

But London Music Tours is not just a summer fling. Like the famous Windmill Theatre during WWII, I never close!* And terms of public, scheduled tours, I’m looking forward to my busiest September and October ever. There are 21 tours to choose from!

 

The Monday Night Music History Club returns on Zoom – the first two meetings will look at The Rolling Stones in 1969 and Music and Crime. My new tour of the National Portrait Gallery, Face The Music, has been very well received and it’s back on the schedule on 9th October. It makes a terrific companion piece to the Musical Statues tour which returns to the schedule for a Sunday morning outing in September.

 

There’s an extra Bowie walk to mark the release of some archive material and Bob Dylan is back, too.

 

My ambitious 6-part series A History of Rock & Pop in London returns to Saturday mornings with a special discount offer. Book all six walks and pay for only three – save 50%. And don’t forget the Pub Quiz Walks and The Great West End Record Store Crawl as well. 

 

As usual, private tours are always available and you can check out my availability using the calendars at the end of this post.

 

I’m really looking forward to seeing you out and about in September & October. Thanks for supporting my one man band!  

 

All best,

Adam,
London

(*I never close should read, I hardly ever close… apart from February & Christmas Day. But apart from that, hit me up for a guided tour all the year round!)

“Adam manages to convey his the excitement of the times with warmth and enthusiasm, and it leaves you feeling that he’s that old friend that you always pick up straight where you left off with. Loved it!”

The Rock’n’Roll London tour with Adam was outstanding! He’s a passionate music historian (and a musician himself) and is very accommodating to questions as well! You’ll love this tour!
