Former Workshoppers fake it for funds

The band who have starred at the popular Fake Festivals - will be performing covers from a wide range of bands including Tom Waits, Beastie Boys, Talking Heads and Elbow, all in their own delicious style.

The trio are all former Workshop members and are also launching their new covers album, Store in a Cool, Dry Place which will be available on the night.

Also on stage for an evening of acoustic music are G&T - a husband and wife duo whose female half is also a former Workshop member and will soon be appearing in the Studio Group’s production of Sexual Perversity in Chicago, which runs from March 15 to 19.

Rounding off the line-up is Chris Booth, whose sets rarely venture outside the 50s and 60s.

LiveMusic@TheWorkshop is a regular fundraising evening for the Actors’ Workshop Youth Theatre, a registered charity presenting acoustic acts from all over the country in the Workshop’s cabaret style theatre.
