More than 100 singers will be belting out classics from the likes of Queen, John Legend, The Beatles and Lady Gaga at the concert, at St Mary’s Church.

Special guest on the night will be Rock Choir founder, Caroline Redman Lusher, who started the pioneering contemporary choir from her shed in 2005.

It is a feel-good community choir with no pressure on members to be able to read music or even to have ever sung before.

Leader, Ainjiel-Shaolee Clark, has got together a choir made up of local singers as well as the best from the region.

The concert starts at 7.30pm with tickets priced at £10, to include a glass of wine or soft drink.
