Nick Cave set to bring Conversations tour to the UK

Nick Cave is set to bring his Conversations tour to the UK. 

Following a sold out run in Australia and New Zealand, the musician will also bring the event to Europe, while stopping by key UK locations including Manchester, London, and Edinburgh. 

The night offers a mixture of music and open discussion, seeing him take questions from the audience on a range of topics, while performing some of his most beloved songs on piano. 

The event has been described by Cave as “an exercise in connectivity” and audiences are encouraged to be “bold and challenging, confrontational and unafraid” in their choice of questions. 

“I thought that a direct conversation with the audience might be valuable – in the recent live shows we have all shown a kind of willingness to open up,” the musician said.
