British pop group, The South, will be performing the timeless classics of The Beautiful South at the Cheese and Grain on Friday 6th Sept. at 7.30pm.
The nine-piece band features former members of The Beautiful South including singer Alison Wheeler and lifelong sax player Gaz Birtles. Since Dave Hemingway, the original singer, left the group at the end of 2016, Gaz has moved across to front the band with Alison and taken on vocal duties. New for 2024, Gareth John joins both Gaz and Ali on vocals bringing his talents to the forefront making him a third vocalist as part of the new set-up.
Since the demise of The Beautiful South in 2007, this exciting live band has spent 15 years touring the theatres and festivals of the UK up and down the country, bringing back the full sound and arrangements of these treasured songs – A Little Time (the number one single), Perfect 10, Rotterdam, Song For Whoever, Old Red Eyes Is Back, Good as Gold, Don’t Marry Her plus many more singles and album tracks as well as a few choice South originals. These songs span an impressive 18-year career starting way back in 1989!
Tickets are £27.50 plus a booking fee. Tickets can be purchased via the Cheese and Grain website: www.cheeseandgrain.com/events/the-south/
