About This Event

"Every bad situation is a blues song waiting to happen” she said. How else do you think she wrote those lyrics? Immerse yourself with us fellow music lovers into the heart of Amy's beloved musical home - Camden - enshrined with devoted artwork and Amy melodies that still linger today. Led by a life long DJ, song writer and musicologist, we'll retrace her footsteps on those world famous musical hall of fame littered Camden streets that will give glimpses into her extraordinary journey from a retro music loving teenager to five Grammy awards - many told effortlessly by her lyrics and rich blend of eclectic music genres Infused with deep expressive vocals, storytelling and emotional depth yet witty lyrics, her addictive music merged elements of soul, reggae, rhythm n blues, rock n roll, hiphop and of course jazz - creating a distinctive contemporary sound that could easily fit into the 30s musical Jazz era yet still sound different from all the autotuned mainstream which she despised nearly as much as the Spice Girls themselves. Many fakes wearing their **Fuck Me Pumps** tried to imitate her but failed miserably (though I have to admit I do like a few Duffy tracks!). And on that distinct voice George Michael: "Amy was, in my opinion, the most soulful vocalist this country has ever seen" In her own words paraphrased "Camden Town ain’t gonna be burning down baby" during this musical escapade. Without giving away too much- it will be led by a life long music person entwined with the local Camden music scene since a kid. We'll visit iconic spots central to both her life and the long music history of Camden itself including venues where she performed, her homes, the market and that section that got burned down in the fire, and lastly mutiple areas showcasing artwork in her honour. But it would be no real tour without visiting and avin a drink in the musical rock n roll pubs where she gigged, worked behind the bar, hung out and drank her unquie signiture cocktail. From what
