The Amy Winehouse Band

The Amy Winehouse Band play the Swansea Grand Theatre and Arts Wing on Wednesday 24 February 2027, starting at 7:00pm. This isn't a tribute act in the usual sense. They're Amy Winehouse's original band, the one that played with her from her earliest gigs in London pubs right through her rise to fame.

They're fronted by vocalist Bronte Shandé and led by musical director and bass player Dale Davis, with onscreen visuals running alongside the music. The line-up includes musicians who toured and recorded with Amy, and the show is billed as the only completely authentic reimagining of her sound, staged with a close friend from the very start of her career. It's a set that comes from the people who were actually there, rather than a cover band working from records.

Much of the material will likely draw on Back to Black, the album released in 2006 that turned her from a rising British talent into a global cultural force. It earned her five GRAMMY Awards at the 2008 ceremony, making her the first British woman to win that many in one night. Davis remembers when he congratulated her on the album's success, she told him, without any arrogance, "I knew what I was doing."

It's a night that brings together the musicians who knew her work from the inside, with Bronte Shandé on vocals and Dale Davis leading the band. The show runs at the Swansea Grand Theatre and Arts Wing on Wednesday 24 February 2027, starting at 7:00pm.
