Let's Raise the Roof: The Magnificant AKs together with the Bebington Bittermen

TICKETS https://www.eventbrite.com/e/lets-raise-the-roof-the-magnificant-aks-together-with-the-bebington-bitte-tickets-1986888110825?aff=oddtdtcreator You are invited to an evening of stunning a cappella harmonies and laugh-out-loud fun with these two fine groups of men. Be prepared to sing, laugh and maybe shed a tear or two ast hey share songs from the sublime to the ridiculous. Definitely not your ordinary male voice choirs. St Peter’s is a much-loved Marlborough landmark and highly valued by audiences and performers alike. At a time when many venues are struggling with increased costs, all proceeds from this concert will go to support the St Peter’s Charitable Trust and their work in preserving the venue for the community. The Magnificent AKs are the uniquely hilarious award-winning singing machine from that tranquil corner of North Wiltshire, Ashton Keynes. Nobody knows the exact reason why, but in 2008 the men of the village started to sing. They sang about sheds. And duct tape. And beer. Infact, they sang about everything that was important to them.From such humble beginnings the troupe has ascended the greasy pole to perform in (among other places) Bristol Beacon (formerly The Colston Hall) and The Roundhouse as well as appearing live on Radio 3’s ‘The Choir’. Singing on Windmills, White Horses, and at Stonehenge,gave them the title for their first CD ‘Monumental’ and a later visit to the Giant’s Cause wayinspired their second recording ‘Gigantic’.
