The Stylistics play their classic 1970s soul and R&B hits live at Victoria Hall in Hanley.
The Stylistics are playing Victoria Hall on Thursday 26 November, their only Stoke-on-Trent date of the tour. It's a full set of their 1970s hits, so if you've grown up with their records, this is the one to go for.
They formed in Philadelphia in 1968 and became one of the most successful soul bands on the R&B scene. Their sound was built on charisma, style and harmony, and that combination helped them grow into one of the best-selling Philly groups of their era. During the early 1970s, they put together twelve consecutive top-ten R&B hits, all produced by Thom Bell. Among them was the Grammy-nominated 'You Make Me Feel Brand New', alongside 'You Are Everything', 'Betcha by Golly, Wow', 'Can't Give You Anything (But My Love)', 'I'm Stone in Love with You', 'Let's Put It All Together', 'Sing Baby Sing' and 'Rockin' Roll Baby'.
They've said they love returning to the UK and can't wait to perform all their hits, so the set will be a run through that early material. It's a good night for anyone who knows the songs but hasn't heard them live.
