Whether you’re a lifelong soul fan or just love great music, this is a night you don’t want to miss! Performed by the iconic 60's band the Tornados

The Tornados made history in 1962 as the first British band to hit No.1 on both sides of the Atlantic with their groundbreaking instrumental "Telstar." A space-age anthem that captured the spirit of an era, it remains one of the most iconic records of all time.

Today, The Tornados continue to bring the magic of the 60s to life, performing an electrifying mix of 60s pop, Mod, Northern Soul classics, and of course, their worldwide smash "Telstar." Their sound stays true to the golden era, thanks to authentic vintage instruments, including a 1964 Ludwig drum kit, classic Fender and Gibson guitars, and the unmistakable tones that defined a generation.

The current lineup keeps the band’s legendary sound alive: Tristan Long – long-time Tornados drummer, driving the beat on a vintage 1964 Ludwig kit.

Whether it’s a nostalgic trip down memory lane or a fresh take on timeless hits, The Tornados continue to captivate audiences with their unmistakable sound and high-energy performances.

The Tornados – Still riding the "Telstar" wave!
