Musicians to take to the stage for ‘exciting' charity show
A NUMBER of musicians will descend on Dudley for an 'exciting' evening of performances for two important causes.
Organised by Gurcharan Bhujhangy and Nash Aujla, five local acts will be joining forces to raise money for The British Heart Foundation and Sanihi Sewa – a charity dedicated to tackling social isolation amongst the elderly.
The 'ultimate Abba tribute band', Strictly Abba, the 'King' of the Black Country, Elvis tribute, Joe Elvis and Black-country Bhangra group, Bhangra Smash Up will be taking to the stage at the Grand 8, Dudley for an evening of musical fundraising.

Explaining the chosen charitable causes, Gurcharan Bhujhangy said: 'The British Heart Foundation is close to our hearts because we lost our dear father Dalbir Khanpur, from the legendary UK band Bhujhangy Group, due to a major heart attack in 2008 while at work. He was only 59 years old.
'We would love it if people could help and support to help us cure heart and circulatory disease and keep funding research that saves lives. Let's make a difference.'
Nash Aujla added: 'Sanjhi Sewa was set up to tackle social isolation amongst the elderly.

Tickets to the event are available to purchase here.
Taking place on Saturday, February 8, both Gurcharan and Nash hope to not only champion two amazing causes but also bring the Black Country community together through a night of music and dancing.
