The band of a much‑loved British singer will stop at a south Essex venue later this year to mark the anniversary of one of the world’s most successful albums.
The Amy Winehouse Band will perform at the Cliffs Pavilion in Southend on November 8 as part of a UK tour celebrating the 20th anniversary of Amy Winehouse’s iconic album Back to Black.
The band, made up of Amy’s original musicians who accompanied her from her early days through to international stardom, will perform the full album live in tribute to the late singer.
Dale Davis, Amy's long-time musical director and bass player, said: "I can’t believe that it’s the 20th anniversary of Back to Black this year.
"When I congratulated Amy on the success of this incredible album, she said to me, not with any arrogance, 'I knew what I was doing,' and at that moment, I realised that she knew exactly what she had created.
"It’s still an honour, pleasure, and privilege to be performing these songs, from this timeless classic."
Back to Black, released in 2006, propelled Winehouse to global fame and earned her five Grammy Awards in 2008, including Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best New Artist.
