LOVE With Johnny Echols

About this event

Malt Room Standing LOVE with Johnny Echols sees Arthur Lee’s longest-serving band head to Brewery Arts, performing the classic songs from Love’s first three albums Love, Da Capo, Four Sail and of course the timeless Forever Changes. 2026 also marks the 60th anniversary of their debut album and the release of its follow-up, Da Capo. This year, Rhino will release a five-disc vinyl box set (containing the first four albums and a disc of rarities) with a liner essay written by David Fricke, formerly of Rolling Stone magazine. 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. Joining Johnny Echols on stage is Baby Lemonade, who, from 1993 until Arthur died 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, as well as back-to-back Glastonbury performances and an appearance on Later with Jools Holland.
