LIVE AT THE CORRAN:
SISTER SLEDGE /
THE REAL THING
The Corran Hotel, Laugharne, Carmarthenshire,
Sat 30 Aug
Tickets: £42.50/£275 VIP.
Info: www.liveatthecorran.com
Disco and soul icons Sister Sledge and The Real Thing are coming to the
Welsh countryside. At the end of the month they will both be performing at
The Corran, a luxurious resort in the picturesque valleys of Carmarthenshire.
This concert follows the rousing success of their last live event, where over
800 people enjoyed the jazzy stylings of Curtis Stigers. The venue’s size
allows a more intimate location for such huge acts, and is surrounded by
idyllic views of marshland and the sea.
Pennsylvania natives Sister Sledge, who everyone will recognise from their
number one hit We Are Family, will top the bill at the Corran’s second live
event. This will be their only gig in Wales on this tour, so if you are Sister
Sledge fan, make sure not to miss it.
From slightly more nearby, The Real Thing will be sharing the stage with
Sister Sledge. The Merseyside band took the UK charts by storm in the
mid-70s, You To Me Are Everything reaching number one in 1976; hits
including Can You Feel The Force and You’ll Never Know What You’re
Missing followed. Remixes of You To Me... and others revived the band’s
popularity in the 80s, and they remain a popular draw on the touring circuit.
When they grace the same stage as Sister Sledge on Sat 30, expect the night to
be as unforgettable as the songs both groups have belted out down the years.
