The legendary singer/ songwriter Gilbert O’Sullivan will be appearing at the Cheese & Grain in Frome on Monday 7th October in a really rare solo show, in an intimate setting.
The stripped back format will enable him to fully showcase his formidable talents as a songwriter and charismatic performer.
He has had 16 Top 40 singles and two Number 1s in the UK, mega sales all over the world and his recent self-titled album made the Top 20. In 1972 he was the biggest selling solo artist in the world – outstripping even Elton John and Rod Stewart!
The release of Alone Again (Naturally) in that year sealed his fame, topping the USA charts for six weeks and garnering three Grammy nominations.
Expect all the classic songs such as “Nothing Rhymed” “Alone Again (Naturally)” “Clair” “Get Down” “No Matter How I Try” “Why, Oh Why, Oh Way” etc., together with great new material from the three times Ivor Novello winner and one of the all-time great performers.
Tickets are available from the Cheese & Grain box office on 01373 455420 and wegottickets.com
![Town-wide programme brings month of social activities in May
A month-long programme of activities and events is set to take place across the town in May as part of an initiative encouraging residents to connect with themselves, each other and local places.
The scheme, Frome Connects, will run throughout the month and includes a mix of social activities, creative events and informal meet-ups in community spaces.
Highlights include the return of Dress Up Fridays, which began during lockdown and invites people to wear formal clothing or fancy dress and turn the town into their catwalk each Friday.
Set-piece moments include a Kate Bush-themed flashmob (Running Up That [Catherine] Hill) on 30th May, followed by a bell peal at St John’s Church where the bells will play Running Up That Hill.
There will also be a whole-town drone photo on Friday 30th May, with everyone encouraged to ‘look up’ at around 12.30pm.
