Bury St Edmunds Armed Forces Day Concert 2011 June 24, 2011

Since last year's concert was such a success, I thought it would be rude to not have another go this year- see if we can make it even better!

Six Whiting Street and the St Edmundsbury Borough Council, have teamed up in a huge effort to boost public awareness of Armed Forces Day, whilst also raising funds for Help for Heroes.

FRIDAY 24th JUNE:

ABBEY GARDENS

What better way to end your busy week and start the weekend's festivities then with an open air concert? The gardens will be open for the evening's entertainment from 7pm, with a nice bit of live accoustic music to welcome you in.

7:15pm PHILL HARRINGTON
Prepare to be whisked away by this unique accoustic performance. A rare quality indeed, Phill has that the ability to silence a room with only his voice and his guitar. I promise you will be blown away by just how talented this young man is!

8pm INVERSE OREO
For all of you who are familiar with these guys, you know exactly what to expect... For all of you who are not, you are in for a treat! The Inverse Oreo were formed to cross musical boundaries... Skillfully weaving their way through a range of popular music from rap to pop, they will take you on a majestic journey through time.

9pm COLDPLACE
The UK`s finest and most authentic tribute to Coldplay.
Coldplace have been on the tribute circuit for about seven years now and have firmly established themselves as one of the top tributes in the world. With many memorable shows in their back catalogue, these guys will give you a live experience you will not forget!
Coming from the east coast town of Grimsby, Coldplace have enjoyed massive success over the last three years including a support slot with sir Bob Geldoff in Malta and a performance in front of an estimated 38,000 people at the Matthew Street Festival in Liverpool. Coldplace don't just play the songs, they play them with all the feeling they deserve.
