SHALAMAR live in concert at Buxton Opera House
New show - SUNDAY 26th NOVEMBER AT BUXTON OPERA Shalamar at Buxton Opera House Sunday 26 Nov.'Friends' 40th Anniversary Ticketlink - bit.ly/3pCGaRm
After a 15 date tour in June where the band performed their biggest audiences since the original 1982 ‘Friends’ Tour including sold out shows at prestigious venues such as The London Palladium and Birmingham Symphony Hall SHALAMAR have announced they’re returning the UK in November/December 2023 for a short run of dates at theatres/cities they missed out on on the June run. For the first time ever they’ll come to the Opera House art Buxton on Sunday 26th November
For the very very first time the band will perform THE ENTIRE album live in concert –all 10 tracks from the album in full. As Howard Hewett lead singer said ‘ throughout the years we’ve played the 4 hit singles plus varying other tracks from the album but never the whole 10 tracks, for a lot of people ( over a million copies were sold in the uk alone) Friends was their ‘go to’ album of the early 80’s. Indeed in the days of soul boy cars such as Fiesta XR2i and Escort XR3i the sound of ‘Friends’ blasting out the in car speaker system was ever present!
Special guest is The UK’s favourite Soulstress Jaki Graham
