The means by which she makes her art is generated by her magpie-esque propensity to intuitively collect and gather stuff.  \nTo Nicky the conventional is like a cul-de-sac so her process creates an obstacle course\, bending and twisting its way out to an unforeseen but interesting destination\, which itself is yet another signpost to somewhere else. \nNicky has worked with a variety of artists including David Kefford\, Andrew Crosse and Ray Spence and is currently working on a project with Funki Porcini (James Braddell). \nNicky studied Fine Art at Birmingham University\, she has worked as Artist Educator in Educational settings and was a Teacher of Art in UK Schools for 10 years.

SUMMARY:DIDCOT with Sally Barker
DESCRIPTION:Hoorah! We love this gig and the people. A lovely Oxfordshire pub in the lovely Oxfordshire village of East Hagbourne. This gig is me and Sally doing our original songs and having a nice time. We hope you will too!  \nAnna Ryder and Sally Barker met in the middle of a field in the village of Cropredy.  They were introduced by bass player and friend of the stars\, Fairport\nConvention’s Dave Pegg on the occasion of their annual folk rock festival. Both Anna and Sally have mixed with the stars\, Sally with supports to Tom Jones\,\nRobert Plant and Bob Dylan and Anna working with Fairport\, Eddi Reader and Julianne Regan. \nSally and Anna collaborate in the trio IOTA and the Sandy Denny Project but decided also to record and tour as a duo. To that end they have released\n“WHEN I WAKE UP” a record that explores themes of love\, nature\, Gannets on Alderney\, football\, sea nymphs\, St Luke and imagery from fact and fiction.\nThere is a nakedness coupled with a simplicity that is refreshingly honest in these recordings. \n“WHEN I WAKE UP” sounds old-fashioned in a good way and hosts a collection of words and musical shapes that paint personal colours with voices\nthat swirl and swoop in a wonderful interplay of expression. Anna and Sally’s songs bounce off each other like the bubbles a child blows as they bump then\nfoat calmly through the air until they gently pop. \nBoth Sally and Anna have guested with and supported Fairport Convention on their Wintour – annA in 1999 and Sally in 2017.

At that date we played some of our own songs too! This is a lovely small venue with a great atmosphere\, bar and food.\n \nIn this show ‘Sandy\, Joni & Me’ SALLY BARKER and ANNA RYDER are delighted to bring some of the songs of both Joni Mitchell and Sandy Denny to the stage as well their original material\, exploring the singer/songwriter legacy that was forged in the early ’70s.\n\nVeteran folk-blues singer/songwriter Sally Barker (lead vocal\, guitars & percussion) became Tom Jones’ finalist on The Voice UK 2014 after reducing her mentor to tears with her performances. \nSally has toured with Sir Tom\, Bob Dylan and Robert Plant and DJ Chris Evans said\, “Sally changes the atmosphere in a room when she sings”. \nSally is joined by singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Anna Ryder (vocal\, keys\, guitars & banjo) who has worked with Fairport Convention\, Eddi Reader and Julianne Regan (All About Eve). Although it is based in folk\, Anna’s musical style crosses genres. \n\n

DESCRIPTION:THIS GIG WAS POSTPONED DUE TO COVID \nSally and Anna met through their mutual friends Fairport Convention with whom both have guested and supported on Fairport’s Wintour (at different times). \nThis tour launches their new album ‘When I Wake Up’. A combination of both songwriters original material. \nSally Barker (vocal\, guitar & percussion) sang to millions as Tom Jones’ finalist on The Voice UK but the singer-songwriter has entertained for years as a member of revered fem-folk group The Poozies\, in the re-formed Fotheringay and as a solo artist supporting Bob Dylan\, Robert Plant and Richard Thompson (and many more). Sally Barker brings any song gloriously to life and also works (at different times) with Americans Vicki Genfan and Brooks Williams and occasionally with Sarah Allen of Flook. \nAnna Ryder (vocal\, keys\, accordion\, guitar & banjo) is a musical dynamo; an original and inventive singer-songwriter with a musical style that\, although based in folk\, spans an array of genres. Amongst others Anna has worked with Fairport Convention\, Eddi Reader\, Julianne Regan (All About Eve). \nSally and Anna are band mates in the trio IOTA with Marion Fleetwood.

SUMMARY:*Cancelled* ASHBY DE-LA-ZOUCH with Sally Barker
DESCRIPTION:THIS IS CANCELLED DUE TO ERROR! Sorry! \n  \nAnna Ryder and Sally Barker met in the middle of a field in the village of Cropredy.  They were introduced by bass player and friend of the stars\, Fairport\nConvention’s Dave Pegg on the occasion of their annual folk rock festival. Both Anna and Sally have mixed with the stars\, Sally with supports to Tom Jones\,\nRobert Plant and Bob Dylan and Anna working with Fairport\, Eddi Reader and Julianne Regan. \nSally and Anna collaborate in the trio IOTA and the Sandy Denny Project but decided also to record and tour as a duo. To that end they have released\n“WHEN I WAKE UP” a record that explores themes of love\, nature\, Gannets on Alderney\, football\, sea nymphs\, St Luke and imagery from fact and fiction.\nThere is a nakedness coupled with a simplicity that is refreshingly honest in these recordings. \n“WHEN I WAKE UP” sounds old-fashioned in a good way and hosts a collection of words and musical shapes that paint personal colours with voices\nthat swirl and swoop in a wonderful interplay of expression. Anna and Sally’s songs bounce off each other like the bubbles a child blows as they bump then\nfoat calmly through the air until they gently pop. \nBoth Sally and Anna have guested with and supported Fairport Convention on their Wintour – annA in 1999 and Sally in 2017.

SUMMARY:BIRMINGHAM with Sally Barker
DESCRIPTION:…with Sally Barker – “Sally\, Joni and Sandy” – the songs of Joni Mitchell and Sandy Denny. I’ve recently been working with Sally through IOTA and now we’re embarking on our own duo work which includes this project. \nIt’ll be really great playing my local city for a change! \nChampioned by Sir Tom Jones as he (sometimes tearfully) mentored her through to the final of The Voice 2014\, Sally has supported Sir Tom\, Bob Dylan and Robert Plant amongst others during 30+ years as a fiercely independent respected folk-blues singer/songwriter. \nFounding member of revered fem-folksters The Poozies and folk-rock’s reformed Fotheringay\, Sally takes time out from new indie-folk trio IOTA to perform classics by Joni Mitchell and Sandy Denny alongside her own songs. New solo album Bearing Witness is due in September. \n“Sally changes the atmosphere in a room when she sings” (BBC Radio 2’s Chris Evans). \nApparently this cafe is a tranquil oasis in the heart of Kings Heath and they have nice home-cooked food so come early and eat.

SUMMARY:LONDON Green Note with Sally Barker
DESCRIPTION:I’ll be with Sally Barker playing the songs of Joni Mitchell and Sandy Denny here! \nSally Barker is The ‘Voice’ that made Sir Tom Jones cry… \nWhether singing asTom Jones’ finalist on BBC TV’s The Voice\, the songs of Sandy Denny in the reformed Fotheringay\, revered fem-folk group The Poozies or as a solo artist supporting Bob Dylan\, Robert Plant and Richard Thompson Sally Barker brings any song gloriously to life.\nA singer/songwriter whose back catalogue encompasses folk\, jazz\, blues and soul\, she reduced Sir Tom Jones to tears as he mentored her through to the final of The Voice 2014. \nShe remains fiercely independent and true to her craft either solo (Feb 2017 CD ‘GHOST GIRL’) or as a duo with Vicki Genfan (Sept 2017 CD ‘IN THE SHADOW OF A SMALL MOUNTAIN’) or\, finally\, as a member of fab all-female trio I O T A (with Anna Ryder and Marion Fleetwood). \nA truly captivating performer as much at home in a folk club as on national television. \n“Sally changes the atmosphere in a room when she sings” (BBC Radio 2’s Chris Evans).\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ak2wHNsAG5g Dear Darlin’ on ‘The Voice’\nwww.sallybarker.co.uk

SUMMARY:Birmingham Kitchen Garden Cafe with Sally Barker
DESCRIPTION:…with Sally Barker – “Sally\, Joni and Sandy” – the songs of Joni Mitchell and Sandy Denny. I’ve recently been working with Sally through IOTA and now we’re embarking on our own duo work which includes this project. \nIt’ll be really great playing my local city for a change! \nChampioned by Sir Tom Jones as he (sometimes tearfully) mentored her through to the final of The Voice 2014\, Sally has supported Sir Tom\, Bob Dylan and Robert Plant amongst others during 30+ years as a fiercely independent respected folk-blues singer/songwriter. \nFounding member of revered fem-folksters The Poozies and folk-rock’s reformed Fotheringay\, Sally takes time out from new indie-folk trio IOTA to perform classics by Joni Mitchell and Sandy Denny alongside her own songs. New solo album Bearing Witness is due in September. \n“Sally changes the atmosphere in a room when she sings” (BBC Radio 2’s Chris Evans). \nApparently this cafe is a tranquil oasis in the heart of Kings Heath and they have nice home-cooked food so come early and eat. \nTickets: https://www.wegottickets.com/event/461527

SUMMARY:Leicester The Musician with Sally Barker
DESCRIPTION:Yay – I’m playing a gig with Sally’s special Sunday afternoon gig here at The Musician. A great venue!  It is “Sally Barker sings Joni Mitchell & Sandy Denny.” I love those songs. \nDid you know Sally broke her wrist earlier this year? Well I’m going to help her out by playing instruments at this gig as her wrist is still hurty and I might do some singing too. \nSinger/Songwriter Sally Barker\, Tom Jones’ Finalist in the Voice\, presents an afternoon of songs by Sandy Denny and Joni Mitchell. Local singer Sally has thrilled audiences for aeons\, reducing Tom Jones to tears with her version of Nina Simone’s ‘Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood’ in the Blind Auditions of The Voice 2014 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_FqFsu-gsQ). See Sally sing Sandy’s ‘Rising for the Moon’ with Fairport Convention here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKJhSM1g3WU & venture here for Sally’s version of Joni’s ‘Coyote’: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A57A3GTQxU8 \nSandy Denny\, writer of ‘Who Knows Where the Time Goes’\, is best known as the lead singer of the British folk rock band Fairport Convention and duetted with Robert Plant on ‘The Battle of Evermore’ for Led Zeppelin’s album Led Zeppelin IV in 1971. A four album solo career followed her briefly-lived band Fotheringay (with husband Trevor Lucas). Her distinctive songwriting style and treatment of traditional folk repertoire is evident on four solo albums: ‘The North Star Grassman and the Ravens’\, ‘Sandy’\, ‘Like an Old Fashioned Waltz’\, and ‘Rendezvous’ before her untimely death in 1978 at the age of 31. Music publications Uncut and Mojo have called Denny Britain’s finest female singer-songwriter. \nCanadian Joni Mitchell is a living legend. Joni’s 4th album ‘Blue’ is regarded as a masterpiece and the epitome of the confessional singer-songwriter genre. She became a darling of the Greenwich Village coffee house folk scene in the 60s with her enigmatic songs\, often written on the guitar using open tunings. Artists such as Judy Collins\, Dave Van Ronk\, Tom Rush\, Buffy St Marie and George Hamilton IV had hits with her songs before Dave Crosby took her to Los Angeles\, introduced her to his manager and produced her first album\, ‘Song to a Seagull’. Joni followed this with the self-produced ‘Clouds’\, ‘Ladies of the Canyon’ and ‘Blue’. Successive albums (‘For the Roses’\, ‘Court and Spark’\, ‘The Hissing of Summer Lawns’\, ‘Hejira’ and ‘Don Juan’s Reckless Daughter’) encompassed forays into pop\, country and jazz. The 1979 album ‘Mingus’ divided critics and lost Joni her mainstream audience. Although her later work did not match the commercial success of her golden creative period between 1968 and ’79\, her reputation as the most influential female recording artist of the late 20th century was assured. Joni recorded seven more albums of new music\, the last being ‘Shine’ in 2007. A brain aneurysm in 2015 affected Joni’s speech and mobility but due to daily rehabilitation she is recovering\, albeit slowly.
