Simon Campbell, who was nominated for a British blues award in 2011, was born and raised in Bury and always very active in the music scene, featuring in popular bands such as Whitefire, The Disciples, The Method, Roadrunner and Little Brother.

“Having headlined festivals on the other side of the world and performing to great audiences across Europe," he says, "I can't wait to play a gig on my home turf and see everyone again." Read about his partner Suzy Starlite here

The Starlite Campbell Band will be playing songs from the new record The Language of Curiosity which is currently being recorded at their 'popup' studio near Hannover in Germany. The album is set for release in early 2020 on the Supertone Records label.

For a taste of what to expect of the band's live performance, Nina Jackson – Music & Venue Manager of the legendary Half Moon in Putney, London – said: "Starlite Campbell are a stunning live band who have the most amazing energy both on and off stage! Their electric chemistry had everyone dancing for the whole night. We can't wait to have them back again." Five Stars *****
