It’s time for some early 90’s nostalgia with the return of Shakespears Sister to the Newcastle O2 Academy this April. We were huge fans back in the day and can’t wait to see Siobhan Fahey live again on Sunday 18th April. The lineup is set to include the international number 1 Stay, other old favourites and some of Siobhan’s new work from her 2009 album Songs from the Red Room.

In May you can catch Jamie Cullum’s live performance in Newcastle, he’ll be just back in the country after a leg of his world tour including Singapore and Sydney to promote his latest album Verve. Word is there are only a few tickets left so we recommend booking now so you don’t miss out. Jamie’s catalogue includes a diverse range of styles from swinging standards, yearning confessionals to thumping house dance tracks and even Broadway ballads so there truly is something for everyone. He’ll be lighting up Newcastle City Hall on Tuesday 11thMay as he works his way around the country.
