UB40 ft. Ali Campbell wows crowds at Llangollen Pavilion
Headlining the third night of TK Maxx presents Live at the Llangollen Pavilion, following Texas and Rag'n'Bone Man, UB40 ft. Ali Campbell did not disappoint, performing a slew of classic hits.
Perfect music for a chilled weekend, they kicked off the evening with Small Axe and Food for Thought before crowd pleasers If It Happens Again and Homely Girl.
Duets of Cathy's Clown and Would I Lie with velvet voiced support artist Bitty McLean fitted perfectly into the 90-minute set which also included Burden of Shame, Cherry Oh Baby, Many Rivers and One In Ten.
To close the night, the Pavilion crowd joined Campbell for an encore of Red Red Wine and Kingston Town before a finale of hit cover (I Can't Help) Falling In Love With You.
Opening the night was Reggae Roast featuring Mr. Williamz and a set from British reggae singer/songwriter Bitty Mclean.
The founding member and lead singer of UB40, Ali Campbell left the original band in 2008, citing issues with management.
He reunited with fellow original member Astro in 2013, releasing three new albums and reaching number 2 in the UK charts before Astro's death in November 2021 after finishing fourth album Unprecedented.
UB40 ft. Ali Campbell continue to tour, with further shows across the UK, Europe and South America planned for this summer.
TK Maxx presents will continue at the North Wales Venue, this evening (Sunday, June 29) with James, with performances from The Script, Olly Murs, and The Human League scheduled throughout the rest of the week.
