The legendary reggae performers will bring their unmistakable sound to Goffs Park on Friday, July 12th, and Bristol’s Amphitheatre on Friday, August 2nd, for what promises to be a ‘fantastic evening of live music’.
The band topped the UK singles charts on three occasions and sold over 70 million records as they took their smooth yet rootsy musical blend to all corners of the globe. Between 1983 and 1998, the group produced three ‘Labour Of Love’ albums, bringing hits such as Eric Donaldson’s ‘Cherry Oh Baby’, Lord Creator’s Kingston Town’ and Johnny Osbourne’s ‘Come Back Darling’ to a new global audience. They also topped the charts on both sides of the Atlantic with their reggae cover of Neil Diamond’s ‘Red Red Wine’.
Their fans can attend this special summer concert when they play in Crawley later in the year, and Ali and the group will be joined by a special guest, which will be announced shortly.
Tickets for both events start at £42.50, and VIP tickets, which include a premium bar and posh toilets, can be bought to level up their night.
The event site will feature a variety of bars and independent food traders, and concertgoers are welcome to bring fold-up chairs and blankets.
