“I am so looking forward to this tour,” says Richard. “This is a very rare event so come on down and hear some of the world’s greatest songs played by a great band. And yeah – I will be playing a lot of my old songs as well, so all in all it’s gonna be a lot of fun! This is gonna be a real trip!”

‘Music Is Love’ is the 16th Richard Clapton studio album and his first of all covers. On ‘Music is Love’ Richard performs the music of Neil Young, Bob Dylan, The Byrds, Loving Spoonful, songs by artists relevant to when Richard was starting out in the early 70s.
