If you haven’t heard TheOfficialRealPeople before, you really should.

But don’t take our word for it - read this recent Jon Robb article setting out why The Real People are one of the most respected and influential bands of the past 35 years.

Here this Saturday!

Still sounding jukebox perfect and with a new album due next year, it truly is time The Real People were celebrated.

Exclusive boutique gig THIS SATURDAY with Chris & Tony from TheOfficialRealPeople 🌟✨✨✨

Signed to CBS in Dec 1989 THE REAL PEOPLE released their debut album including the singles Window Pane, Open Up Your Mind and The Truth in 1991... a huge influence on OASIS, even helping them to create their first album!

This ‘An Evening With….’ provides a very rare chance for fans old and new to see them perform their back catalogue in stripped down acoustic versions and hear some of the stories behind the songs.

An Evening with Chris & Tony Griffiths from THE REAL PEOPLE Acoustic - Continental, Preston - this Saturday, doors at 8pm. Tickets are strictly limited for this all-seated show. Link 👇

THIS THURSDAY! 💥💥 Yes, it's the ‘No More F***s To Give’ guy!

Thomas Benjamin Wild Esq. has been delivering his own brand of singalong, musical humour since 2016, and the video for his sweary anthem ‘I’ve No More F***s To Give’ has been viewed over 20 million times on YouTube alone, sending his debut album ‘Awkward Encounters While Walking My Dog’ to number 3 in the Billboard Comedy Album Chart in 2019.

CHRIS TAVENER is a theatrical musician with an acerbic wit, who writes his lyrics from the perspective of flawed characters that he draws from 21st century life. His cynical social commentary, dressed in punchy guitar-driven rock and acoustic ballads has won him acclaim from BBC 6 Music and multiple BBC Introducing stations and seen him share stages with Super Hans, Tony Hadley and Peter Hook while also writing songs for the likes of Sir Ian McKellen!

That's THOMAS BENJAMIN WILD, ESQ + CHRIS TAVENER - The Continental, Preston - tickets are strictly limited for this all-seated show! Link 👇
