Soulful singers come to Bedford
No Caption ABCDE
WHEN you hear the name The Three Degrees you immediately think of their most famous song When Will I See You Again.
The vision of three beautiful ebony women, perfectly coordinated in both their dance routines and their vocal harmonies, will probably spring to your mind.
When Will I See You Again was a major hit record throughout the world, topping the chart in the USA, the UK, Japan and most European countries, earning the trio every conceivable accolade at the time, not to mention enough Gold records to make Fort Knox a little envious.
More than two decades on, the threesome has retained all three of their major qualities - their beauty, their sparkling choreography and their precise vocal qualities.
And in between, they have amassed an impressive list of hit records. Today the line-up consists of Valerie Holiday, Helen Scott and Freddie Pool.
The beginning of the group dates back more than four decades when their then manager, the enigmatic Richard Barrett, brought three young teenagers together in Philadelphia.
And The Three Degrees is set to be supported by Bedford sensation Diva Sophia.
Sophia has lived in Bedford all her life and has been a self-taught soul singer since the age of 12, In addition to performing solo she is also lead singer with Bedford band Funk Odyssey and performs most weekends all around the UK.
Catch the stunning singers at Bedford Corn Exchange on Thursday, March 15 at 7.30pm.
Tickets start from £20.50. To book call the box office on 01234 269519 or go to www.bedfordcornexchange.co.uk
