‘THE BEST BIG BAND IN THE LAND’
THE SYD LAWRENCE ORCHESTRA
featuring RICHARD SHELTON as FRANK SINATRA
An evening of toe-tapping big band standards and Sinatra favourites brought to Eastbourne by the Syd Lawrence Orchestra, one of the most enduring and popular UK big bands of all time, alongside Richard Shelton, acclaimed as the world’s foremost interpreter of Frank Sinatra’s music.
A celebration of big band classics and Frank Sinatra, the greatest voice of the twentieth century – featuring Sinatra hits My Way, Angel Eyes, That’s Life, Fly Me to the Moon and many, many more.
Count Basie himself described the Syd Lawrence Orchestra as
“So good it should be BANNED!”.
“If you love Sinatra, Richard Shelton is unmissable.”
'… Shelton is so charming, so convincing, so compelling.'
'He absolutely inhabits Ol’ Blue Eyes’ persona… right down to every mannerism, facial tic and spoken inflection, nailing Sinatra’s distinctive phrasing and the rich timbre of his singing voice.'
