Still headed by enigmatic lead singer Garry Christian (who very much deserves the Daily Mirror’s description of him as having ‘one of the finest voices in pop) who has only gained in vocal stature (and wit) over the years! the band are enjoying a revival currently touring successfully in the UK and Europe with 2017 being their busiest yet with over 80 tour dates.
2018 sees the band touring the UK France Spain and Switzerland and enjoying playing their back catalogue and songs selected from the new album.
Catch them on tour and find out why Chris Evans said 'it was the best gig I've ever been to'
