The iconic Kings of Christmas, Slade, are back on the road over November and December 2019 with a festive UK Tour playing in the capital at ULU (London University) on Friday 20th December.

Slade are one of the most exciting bands to come out of Great Britain in the past 50 years. With their unique blend of perfect pop rock’n’roll, outrageous flamboyance and pure fun, and no less than 23 top-20 singles, of which six were Number-one smash hits, plus six smash albums, Slade have become a firm favourite in the hearts of pop fans all over the world.

Slade’s chart career has spanned five decades and their enduring songs Cum On Feel The Noize and Coz I Luv You are still featured today in TV commercials for some of the world’s biggest companies.

The band is led by founder members Dave Hill on lead guitar and Don Powell on drums, with John Berry on lead vocals, bass, acoustic guitar and violin. Berry has also played sass with The Sweet, The Tremeloes, Bay City Rollers & The Rubettes. Joining John on lead vocals and keys is Russell Keefe; having played in many original bands in his early years, he has also recorded albums for Polygram & United Artists, as well as touring with The Pretty Things and Les McKeown’s Bay City Rollers.

Slade today is still one of the most exciting bands on the road, and their stage performance is a dynamic, powerful and exhilarating roller-coaster ride of pure unadulterated rock’n’roll. Grab a ticket while you can.
