Nik West

Nik West leapt to fame following her participation in American Idol and the 100^th episode of the award-winning musical series Glee. Her energy on stage and her unique and characteristic hairstyle have set her apart from the crowd, earning her a reputation as an up-and-coming artist on the international music scene.

In spite of having just over 20,000 subscribers to her YouTube channel, her videos have on average over 300,000 views, and her versions of songs such as Back Is Black by AC/DC have notched up views from all around the world.

She is also present in the world of advertising, showing off her skateboarding skills in an advert for McDonald's. The popularity she has gained through her good reviews has led her to share a stage with the likes of Dave Stewart, Bootsy Collins, Prince and John Mayer, among others.

This concert is part of the celebrations to mark one decade of the 1906 Season, dedicated to music. The organisers have chosen sensational artists who make a big impression and influential figures on the music scene, as is the case of West.
