Paying homage to one of the greatest groups of all time!
Celebrating 60 years since their formation, Music Heritage London invites you to this one-off Kinks tribute event in association with their music management team at BMG, upstairs at the Gatehouse theatre in Highgate Village, North London.
The event begins with a guided sightseeing tour of the Davies brothers' old stomping ground in Muswell Hill in a vintage double-decker London bus. On this 2-hour (approx) tour, you'll see the homes they lived in and the locations they frequented, all to a musical backdrop of their recently released 'The Journey 1' compilation album. You'll stop at the school where they attended with Pete Quaife, visit the pub where Ray and Dave first performed in 1960 and see the music shop location where Ray was bought his first guitar on his 13th birthday and hear about the tragic event that followed.
We'll then drop you off right outside The Gatehouse in good time for a swift libation or two before the theatre doors open and the show begins... The critically acclaimed 'Konks' tribute band will be playing all of their hits and more - and we've invited some special guests along who have been associated with the group over the last 60 years.
