Nizlopi is a British music group active since 2003, built around the duo Luke Concannon and John Parker. This concert brings the act to The Garage in London.

Nizlopi is a British music group, active since 2003, whose style draws on traditional music. The act centres on the Anglo-Irish duo Luke Concannon and John Parker, who met as teenagers on a school bus in Warwick. Their debut album, Half These Songs Are About You..., came out in 2004, and their single "The JCB Song" hit number one in Britain and Ireland.

On stage, Luke Concannon sings and plays guitar, while John Parker plays double bass and beatboxes. Their performances are built on spontaneous, intimate playing, often ending with the audience joining in as a choir. The pair parted ways in 2009 after years of touring, then resumed working together, and in 2025 Ed Sheeran invited them to open his LOOP tour of Europe. Since then they have been previewing new songs.

The Garage in London hosts concerts and shows, and this evening brings Nizlopi to its stage.
