London Rock Music walking Tour in Soho.

5.0
(140 reviews)
London, England

2 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English

I have been involved in the music business, running my own label to being signed as an artist, to managing a rock band. I have experienced many stories that I'd love to pass on!

What to Expect

It’s hard to believe just how much musical history is packed into the streets of Soho. The Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Elton John, Black Sabbath and many more all have connections to Soho.

We’ll visit the most iconic music venue, that has welcomed an extraordinary roll call of artists over the years.

You’ll also see where The Beatles recorded their first release on Apple Records, along with the location connected to a famous comedy sketch involving one of the band members.

And if you fancy continuing the conversation, we’ll finish at a beautiful historic English pub with plenty of musical connections of its own. Over a drink, I’ll share some stories from my personal journey through the music business — the people, the places and some of the moments I’ve experienced along the way.
