Paul Heaton plays songs from The Housemartins and The Beautiful South on his UK tour, with The Lightning Seeds as special guests.
Paul Heaton plays Plymouth Arena on Tuesday 3 November, with The Lightning Seeds as special guests. It's one date in a large UK tour running through October and November, and Heaton is expected to pull from across his career, including classics from both The Housemartins and The Beautiful South.
Heaton first made his mark in the early 1980s as the frontman of The Housemartins, the band that gave the world Norman 'Fatboy Slim' Cook. He later fronted The Beautiful South, and together they've put out five number one albums and sold some 15 million records. The set should touch on both eras, so you'll likely hear songs from his time with the Housemartins as well as the ones from The Beautiful South.
The Lightning Seeds are billed as special guests on all the tour dates, so they'll be opening the night before Heaton takes the stage. Between the two, there's a fair bit of UK pop history to cover in one evening.
