The Manfreds

The '60s group Manfred Mann is now considered, more than ever, one of the finest and most respected bands from that era. Their numerous hits were R&B based with an undercurrent of jazz - a very unusual but winning combination of playing style and substance. As a result, their records have a timeless quality and, some 55 years on, The Manfreds, with BOTH original front men, Paul Jones & Mike d’Abo, will be performing many of their hits, including ‘Do Wah Diddy Diddy’, one of the most popular and instantly recognisable songs of the ‘60’s, and still the biggest audience pleaser at their concerts, plus ‘Mighty Quinn’ and many many more, along with a mix of their favourite Jazz and Blues covers. Paul Jones, with his unique harmonica sound, will be joined by Mike d’Abo on keyboards and vocals, Mike Hugg on keyboards, Tom McGuinness on guitar, Rob Townsend on drums, Marcus Cliffe on bass, and Simon Currie on saxophone / flute.
