CALEDON
Scotland's Tenors
Caledon
are touring Scotland
with their all-new show that has been taking Berlin by storm
over the last few months.
The powerful tenor voices of Alan Beck, Jamie MacDougall
and Ivan Sharpe, along with Music Director Michael
Barnett are equally at home on the stage of the world-famous
Sydney Opera House or inspiring the 50,000 football crowd
at Hampden Park with their stirring new version of Flower
of Scotland.
Mixing traditional favourites with contemporary Scottish
classics from the likes of The Proclaimers and even Elvis
(his
ancestors were Scottish!)
Caledon deliver a high energy show like no other. An evening
not to be missed.
Caledon's
Homecoming Party Tour comes to the Macphail Theatre on Friday
28 August Tickets: £12/ £10 concs.
