Concert in which singer and pianist Logan Paul Murphy plays the music of the 1950s, 60s and 70s with just a piano, a guitar and his voice.
Logan Paul Murphy is bringing his Legends of the 50s, 60s and 70s concert to the YMCA Theatre on Saturday 26 March. It's a theatre-style show rather than a standing gig, and the set is built around the music of those three decades, played by Murphy on piano and guitar with his own voice taking the lead. There's no band behind him — just the piano, the guitar, and his voice.
Murphy is a young singer and pianist who's already picked up some national recognition. He first stood out on Series 2 of Channel 4's The Piano, and later appeared on Britain's Got Talent, where he got four yeses from the judges and a standing ovation at the London Palladium. It's a bit of a jump from the local circuit to the Palladium, but he's spent plenty of time in between.
His start was a proper busker's one: he began playing outside Liverpool's Cavern Club when he was thirteen. He's since become a regular performer there and a familiar face at the International Beatleweek Festival, where he's appeared for the last six years. That Liverpool connection sits right at the heart of the 50s, 60s and 70s material he's working with here.

So, on the night, it's just him and his instruments on the YMCA Theatre stage, running through songs from those three decades. If you're into that era of music and fancy hearing it stripped back to a single performer, it's one to keep on your radar. The date is Saturday 26 March.
