Peter Howarth, lead singer with The Hollies and West End star of Only the Lonely - The Roy Orbison Story, invites you to join him on a musical journey as he performs some of the all-time favourites such as He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother, You Got It, and Pretty Woman, to name but a few. You don’t want to miss this fabulous show.

Peter Howarth has been the lead singer of the legendary Hollies since 2004 and has recorded three new albums with the band: Staying Power, Then, Now, and Always, and We Got The Tunes on the EMI label. 2022 marked the start of the much-anticipated Hollies 60th Anniversary World Tour. Over the past 35 years, Peter has written, recorded, played, sung, and toured worldwide with a variety of artists ranging from Cliff Richard to The Who. He has also enjoyed his time in theatre, playing the part of Roy Orbison in Bill Kenwright’s Only the Lonely and Four Steps to Heaven at London's Piccadilly and Whitehall Theatres, as well as around the UK. It was also for Bill Kenwright that he wrote the musical Robin Prince of Sherwood and took the role of the Sheriff of Nottingham in the West End and on tour.

Peter has also toured his own show, Peter Howarth Unplugged, featuring classic hits alongside songs from his album Evermore. Peter is co-founder of the acoustic trio Frontmen, based in Germany. The ensemble has produced two DVDs, Live in Berlin 2016 and Up Close Live 2020, plus three albums: All for One, Up Close Live, and most recently in 2024, Enjoy the Ride.

It’s over fifty years since glamrockers Mud had their first hit record ‘Crazy’ under the guidance of legendary producer Mickie Most and song-writers Nicky Chinn and Mike Chapman. They went on to score 3 UK number 1s, 11 UK top 10s and 15 UK top 40s as well as hits in Europe and many other parts of the world.

Today, the band still has two surviving original members, ROB DAVIS and RAY STILES…(other originals Les Gray and David Mount having passed away). Rob has become a very successful songwriter having penned various hits for many artists including, most notably, Kylie Minogue (Can’t Get You Out Of My Head) and Sophie Ellis Bexter (Groovejet). Ray has been a member of the Hollies for the past thirty six years and still tours with them, playing sell-out shows in Australia, New Zealand, America, Europe, Scandinavia..and also the UK.        

The line-up of Mud is completed by PETE PHIPPS (drums), KEITH READ (guitar) and IAN PARKER (keyboards). Pete was an original member of the Glitterband and also a touring member of the Eurythmics (with Annie Lennox). Keith is a long time friend of Rob and Ray – he was in the Wild Angels (a rock n’roll band of the late 60s and early 70s). Keith shares vocal duties with Ray. Ian is also a long term member of the Hollies and provides additional musical arrangements found on the original records.

Mud still create an element of fun in their shows, and the set consists of all the hits.

Established in 2001 this band is the only tribute to have performed with two original founder members of Blondie, legendary drummer Clem Burke and songwriter, bass player and author Gary Valentine. BB had the honour to be thanked on Blondie’s 11th album ‘Pollinator’ and have played at the world famous CBGB in New York City. In 2019, to celebrate 40 years since the release of Blondie’s iconic album “Parallel Lines” Bootleg Blondie played two UK tours with Clem Burke under the band name CBBB (Clem Burke & Bootleg Blondie). Both tours were a whirlwind of sell out shows, radio, press interviews and fab reviews, driving nearly 5,000 miles and performing to over 7,000 people, also releasing an original single ‘Enigma Soho Au Go Go’ to coincide with the tours which is available through AppleMusic, Spotify, Deezer, and itunes.

Debbie Harris, lead vocalist of Bootleg Blondie, has the looks, the voice and the attitude of the original Blondie bombshell and like her heroine is typically outrageous on stage, wearing dustbin liners, thigh length boots and t.shirts with more holes than t.shirt!  Debbie's pride & joy is her guitar which she plays at every show, signed by all the Blondie band members.

She appeared in The Mail On Sunday Magazine and performed on two TV shows for BBC1 picked out of 15,000 applicants to represent Debbie Harry on ‘Even Better Than The Real Thing’ hosted by Paddy McGuinness which attracted an audience of 10 million viewers!

Debbie Harris is the niece of the celebrated singer and actress Shani Wallis, best remembered for her powerful performance as tragic Nancy in Lionel Bart’s Oscar winning musical film “Oliver!”

‘Good luck with your show!’ DEBBIE HARRY
