This will be music to the ears of lots of local music fans!
Celebrating fifty five years since starting on a career in music and stage, local musician and two times Cancer survivor Keith Hubbard has joined up with Cancer Research UK's Steph Tickle, to form (in what is universally considered to be the home of Rock and Pop music) the Merseyside "Gig 4 Life" Cancer Research UK fundraising committee.
Aiming to raise awareness of the benefits of early diagnosis and the help that Cancer Research UK can give to the community - and on the back of the successful “Race 4 Life” - Cancer Research UK ‘Gig4Life’ committee is arranging a programme of live music fundraising events throughout Merseyside and west Lancashire.
The first of the Gig4Life events to come to Ormskirk is a ‘Rockin’ at The YPC’ special, which will be held on Saturday 19th May 2018, at 7:30pm, in The Civic, Southport Road, Ormskirk.
Featuring in an entirely live musical production will be Keith's four piece band, Beats Workin', who, while performing their own set, will also provide the musical backing for Ormskirk’s own Rock Choir, a sixty plus choir ensemble of local singers directed by Anthony Seaman. Recently Rock Choir have performed at such impressive venues as ACC Arena and The Philharmonic Hall in Liverpool and The Tower Ballroom Blackpool.
Completing the bill will be Burscough Arts Centre ukulele group’s sixteen piece performing band, Ukes At The Wharf, and Beats Workin’s special guest Ormskirk’s own Roy(Rebel) Smith who was a co-founder member, with Keith, of mid 60’s Ormskirk band The Rebels.
Compere for the show will be Mighty FM's Russ Broadbent.
