The South will be playing Theatre On The Hill in Marlborough on Saturday 6 June.

After a marathon 64 gigs in 2014 that saw the band play at all points of the compass in the UK, 2015 sees them taking things a little easier with only a handful of choice gigs put in the diary for this year including the special Marlborough show.

The combination of Beautiful South hits and album tracks as well as original songs from their debut album, Sweet Refrains has hit a pleasure nerve around the country.  

Once in a while a band appears that strikes a chord with many.¬† Their music becomes an integral part of a nation’s psyche and the soundtrack to many people’s lives.¬† Ingrained in the hearts of many is one such band, the Beautiful South.¬† Over 3 decades this band became a household name, selling over 15 million albums.

On disbanding in 2007, original members Dave Hemingway and Alison Wheeler went on to form The South and with mainstays Damon Butcher, Tony Robertson and Gaz Birtles (keyboards and brass since the very beginning of The Beautiful South): this talented 9 piece continue to celebrate the music of the Beautiful South and take on the challenge of creating new material for the band.

With both old and new tunes that stand the test of time, experience this amazing live band performing great songs from Sweet Refrains and classics that can never be forgotten: including Perfect 10, A Little Time, Rotterdam, Don’t Marry Her, You Keep It All In, to name but a few.
