London African Gospel Choir

A reimagining of Paul Simon's 'Graceland'

This event has passed

A choir performs on stage

Hot off the back of multiple sell-outs across the UK, The 23 strong London African Gospel Choir bring their totally uplifting rendition of Paul Simon’s iconic ‘Graceland’ album to Bristol.

Don’t miss this astounding musical reinterpretation. Colourful, uplifting and life affirming, it includes all the hit singles, ‘Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes’, ‘The Boy in the Bubble’ ‘Homeless’ and Graceland’s biggest smash hit, ‘You Can Call Me Al’.

The LAGC’s Graceland is really special and to compare this vibrant show to anything else, would be like trying to measure love or joy with a ruler.
