The songs and story of Carole King with a touch of James Taylor, featuring Nikki Nicholls and Kings Rule has been performed at The Palms in Crown, The Melbourne Town Hall, Alex Theatre, Melbourne and regional performing art centres in Mildura, Swan Hill, Merimbula, Wodonga, Shepparton, Bairnsdale and more. This magical concert of Carole and James' songs has given each audience an unforgettable evening of beautiful memories.

Carole King is one of the most prolific singer/songwriters of this time. The Baby Boomer generation fell in love with her melodies and chord structures that touched the heartstrings of her legions of fans with lyrics that simply expressed their feelings. Her music has withstood the age of time and a new generation of soulful melody lovers have discovered her once again.

Nikki has had a long and distinguished career performing with some of the best artists in the music industry including Stevie Wonder, John Farnham, Suzi Quatro, Lulu, Australian Crawl, Richard Clapton and touring the world with Kylie Minogue.

This fabulous show is a musical journey highlighting not only Carole's creations for herself, but also songs she wrote for other artists .

Wade gives us a touch of James Taylor with some of his most loved songs How Sweet It Is, Fire and Rain, Carolina On My Mind and Steamroller Blues.

Acknowledgement of Country

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities. These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.

We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years. As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.
