This is part of the guys’ new UK tour, as they enter a new era as a duo starring Jem Sharples and Paul Martin.

For the last 20 years, the group has historically been a trio. Following the retirement of the third member last year, Jem and Paul started performing as a duo. The performances were so well received with such excitement by fans, the seed was sown to continue this way.

Jem says: “Celebrating 20 years and with a vast repertoire to choose from, we feel we’re at our best as a duo. Our repertoire includes popular classics and opera mixed with crooner and pop favourites, as well as songs written by ourselves. There’s something for everyone – from Michael Bublé, Frankie Valli to The Pearl Fisher’s Duet and Nessun Dorma.” See the duo in action https://youtu.be/MlkQJk0WjJ0
