Kick off

The tour kicks off in Salford with an informal concert in Peel Hall, Salford University later this month, with further dates at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama and Over-Seas House in London.

New and old

The concerts will comprise of several of the groups favourites from over the ten years (including Stars and Stripes!) — some of which will be featured on the new CD — and also a new commission by Matthew Taylor written especially for the occasion.
