Organiser Josh Daniel known as 'The Tenor', said: "It's going to be a great evening. I am so pleased that after so long we are able to put a show on again, it's been far too long and something we have all missed very much.

"This is what everybody needs, the audience needs to hear live music and the performers need to perform, it's a win-win situation all round.

"So much has been cancelled the past 14 months and we are just so happy to be able to perform for you all again and it would be fantastic to have a sell out audience."
