We say this every time, but WOW. WHAT A NIGHT!
Absolutely incredible.
The final of 2024 was pure magic!
RadCo had the whole room roaring with laughter, dancing with joy, and shouting for more. Fronted by the brilliant (and hilarious) BBC Radio’s Mark Radcliffe, this stellar band—Chris, Nick, Wools, Fluff, Russ, Paul,—delivered a performance we’ll never forget.
Joining them for the “Fairy Tale of New York” finale was an absolute dream, and being waltzed around the theatre by Mark himself? Unexpected and hilarious! 😂
Huge thanks to for captivating the entire audience with her breathtaking set. “A Million Stars” was nothing short of stunning.
And , you’re a wizard behind the lens. This photo says it all—thank you for capturing the moment so perfectly!
Special mention to the absolute hero of the night, Mr. Chris Lee. From sorting the all equipment (for 10 musicians!!) to engineering sound while playing mandolin (yes, really!)—you made it all happen, and we’re so grateful.
And to everyone who bought a ticket, sold out the theatre, and shared the magic with us—thank you. Nights like this remind us why live music is so special.
Here’s to more nights like this. Long may it continue!
