Details

Between telling stories from throughout his career, Craig will sing his famous covers of American hits such as A Teenager in Love and his version of Only Sixteen which was more successful than Sam Cooke's original. He will also perform tracks from his new album The Craig Douglas Project which includes covers of songs such as Depeche Mode's Enjoy the Silence, Radiohead's Creep and Neil Diamond's Beautiful Noise. Craig's band The Craig Douglas Project features in the show along with guest Pat Reader whose career was championed by controversial Ivor Novello winning producer and songwriter Joe Meek, who was responsible for hits such as The Tornados' Telstar. Craig also invites Con and Dec's The Bachelors to join him on stage. As part of their original line-up, The Bachelors, the group out-sold The Beatles in 1964 and 1965. Having split from their fellow band-member John Stokes in 1984, Con and Dec Cluskey continued the band alone, performing their hits such as Charmaine, I Believe, Ramona and Diane.
