STEVE HARLEY ACOUSTIC TRIO – NOVEMBER UK DATES STEVE HARLEY is back on the road with his Acoustic Trio line-up, accompanied by virtuoso players and long-standing Cockney Rebel members, James Lascelles (piano/percussion) and Barry Wickens (violin/guitar/mandolin).

ELAINE PAIGE announces WREXHAM – William Aston Hall show taking place on Tuesday 13th December 2016!

Singer ELAINE PAIGE embarks on a 20 date series of concerts from October to December 2016, entitled ‘Stripped Back’, which will see her perform her favourite tracks, from an array of contemporary songwriters, with a small group of musicians. This follows Elaine’s last solo tour in 2014 which was a sell-out celebratory concert encompassing her incredible 50 year career and saw her say “farewell” to a full touring schedule. ELAINE said: “I’m so excited about this series of ‘weekend’ concerts. Having made the decision not to do a back to back tour again, this appealed to me not only because of the schedule, but as I’ve marked my 50 years on stage, this is going to allow me to do something completely different, a brand new show celebrating the contemporary songwriters I love such as Harry Nilsson , Randy Newman , Jim Webb , Burt Bacharach , Leonard Cohen , Sting , Elton John , Lennon & McCartney ... the list goes on. Their music has been the soundtrack to all our lives, not...
