Love With Johnny Echols
See Love With Johnny Echols in Exeter in May.
On Wednesday 26 May 2027 at 20:00, catch Love With Johnny Echols live at Exeter Phoenix on Brandninch Place.
2027 sees the 60th anniversary release of the seminal album Forever Changes, which Love will perform in full. LOVE with Johnny Echols sees Arthur Lee’s longest-serving band – complete with founding member and guitarist Johnny Echols – continue to perform the classic songs from Love’s catalogue, including the albums Love, Da Capo, Four Sail and, of course, the timeless Forever Changes. This isn’t just a nostalgia trip – their shows are drawing in an increasingly younger audience as teens and students are discovering the timeless music produced by these 60s legends performed by a band that is truly on top of its game. Johnny Echols: “I so look forward to performing LOVE’s extraordinary music to an appreciative audience. We perform much of Forever Changes, as well as favourites from our extensive catalogue… a few deep cuts as well as a few surprises!” Joining Johnny Echols on stage is Baby Lemonade, who from 1993 until Arthur’s death in 2006 performed as his band and became an essential part of the renaissance of Love’s music. This iteration of Love saw many sold-out tours, including a US tour with the Zombies, as well as back-to-back performances at the legendary Glastonbury festival (UK) and appearances all over Europe. Love is: Johnny Echols on guitar & vocals, Rusty Squeezebox on lead vocals & guitar, Mike Randle on guitar & vocals, David Green on drums, and James Nolte on bass. This event is a fundraiser for community radio station Phonic FM.
