The South (Ex-Beautiful South) Announce December UK Shows & Tickets
Wednesday, 01 December 2010
Written by Jon Stickler
Formed 20 years ago, The Beautiful South sold over 15 million albums worldwide and packed out stadiums and arenas throughout that period.
They had a string of hit singles such as ‘Old Red Eyes Is Back’, ‘Rotterdam’, ‘Don't Marry Her’, ‘Perfect 10’ and a number one single with ‘A Little Time’.
Their greatest hits album, ‘Carry On Up The Charts’, was one of the fastest-selling albums in UK history, entering at number one and staying there for weeks, becoming one of the country's most popular albums ever.
Having split in 2007 due to "musical similarities" original Beautiful South members Dave Hemingway & Alison Wheeler (Vocals), Dave Stead (Drums), Damon Butcher (keys), Tony Robinson and Gaz Birtles (brass) have now reformed as The South with the addition of Phil Barton (guitar) and Steve Nutter (Bass), resurrecting the songs and the sounds of this Great British Pop institution by dipping into the Beautiful South songbook as well as writing new material. It’s all about the songs!
The South (Ex-Beautiful South) have announced the following UK shows for December 2010.
Middlesborough Town Hall - 16th December
The Robin, Bilston - 18th December
