Posted on by Peter Chegwyn

Another great live band confirmed for Wickham Festival 2018 is The South who will be performing on Thursday 2nd August. They last played at Wickham in 2015. They have a string of top 20 singles including their No. 1 single A Little Time as well as Don’t Marry Her, Rotterdam, Song For Whoever, Old Redeyes and Perfect 10…

Formerly the Beautiful South the band has had several line up changes over the years. Performing at Wickham this year will be Alison Wheeler (Vocals), Gaz Birtles (Vocals), Phil Barton (Guitars), Steve Nutter (Bass), Dave Anderson (Drums), Karl Brown (Percussion), Gareth John (Trumpet), Su Robinson (Sax), Andy Price (Keys). A brilliant group of live musicians to look forward to!
