Bruce Springsteen music to belt out from popular Sunderland venue... but not as you've ever heard it before!

Popular chorus singers from the Tyneside and Compass A Cappella choirs will be performing hits from The Boss and other big names in music at Seventeen Nineteen - Holy Trinity Church this Saturday.

Tickets for the Summer Concert, which begins at 7.30pm, are priced at £7 and are selling out fast ahead of the gig.

Both singing ensembles will present new songs from their ever-evolving repertoires, including hits by Take That, Queen and recent Sunderland visitor Bruce Springsteen, among others.

Located on Church Street East in Sunderland, this Grade I listed church provides the perfect setting for a summer evening of vocal harmonies. Tickets can be secured on the dedicated ticket hotline at: https://shorturl.at/46QBg

Musical director Susan Jones says she's keen to find tenors to complement the choir, but you don’t need to be a world class performer like opera legend Luciano Pavarotti. A good voice and enthusiasm are what matter most.

Susan said: “When we sing a cappella, our voices are the instruments, just like an orchestra. To achieve a full and rich sound, we need a certain number of voices and ranges in different sections. If you’re interested, come along, and say hello!”

The choirs sing a range of popular songs from across the decades from stars as wide ranging as Simon and Garfunkel, Elbow and Abba.
