Only Men Aloud are coming to Llandrindod Wells as part of their first tour in five years.
The Welsh male voice choir have been delighting audiences around the world for more than 20 years and are well known for their strong vocals and their varied and eclectic repertoire.
A typical Only Men Aloud concert will feature many different styles of music including Welsh hymns and folksongs, opera and musica theatre all the way to acapella and pop music.
In the first wave of planned announcements, the men will play Llandrindod Wells, Bath, Tenby, and Newbridge, with a special ‘Gala Concert’ at Barry Memorial Hall on December 7.
The Llandrindod leg of the tour will take place on Saturday, November 23 in The Albert Hall.
Craig from Only Men Aloud said: “After five years, we’re finally back on tour and we can’t wait to sing to all of our friends and fans – it’s been too long!
“We’ve really missed touring and can’t wait to get on the road and perform for you all once again. Christmas has always been a really special time for us and we’re excited to sing our Christmas songs to you, and start off your festivities.”
