Georgie Fame & The BBC Big Band

About Us

The internationally acclaimed BBC Big Band and conductor Barry Forgie, are joined by the one-and-only Georgie Fame, for one of only a handful of 2019 concert dates.

With more than twenty albums and fourteen hit singles including the Number 1s ‘Yeh Yeh’, ‘Getaway’ and ‘The Ballad of Bonnie and Clyde’, Georgie Fame enjoys legendary status on the international music scene.  With his unmistakeable voice and much-loved blend of jazz and rhythm & blues, he makes his return to Lighthouse with one of the world’s leading and most versatile jazz orchestras, the BBC Big Band – which makes this very special concert a prospect to savour.

Through a diverse repertoire arranged and curated by the BBC Big Band and Georgie, the concert features classic big band numbers from the orchestra, alongside a selection of numbers from Georgie’s own library of Big Band music - including special arrangements of his hits, ‘Yeh Yeh’, ‘Getaway’ and ‘The Ballad of Bonnie & Clyde’.
