MUSIC fans who prefer their artists a bit more mature can enjoy an evening of entertainment from a pair of legendary singers.

Celebrated jazz singer George Benson and former Wet Wet Wet frontman Marti Pellow will take to the stage at the Manchester Arena tonight.

Pennsylvanian born Benson shot to fame in the 1970s with triple platinum album “Breezin”.

On this, his first UK tour in two years, he will perform hits from his impressive back catalogue including “Give Me the Night”, “Lady Love Me (One More Time)” and “Turn Your Love Around”.

Marti Pellow enjoyed massive success with pop group Wet Wet Wet in the 80s and 90s before going on to achieve a successful solo career and starring in West End musicals.


Short stay

CALIFORNIAN trio Millionaires — Melissa Green, Allison Green and Dani Artaud — have been described by critics as “Tarantino doing The Hills”.

Their style is anything goes electro-pop and tunes such as “Just Got Paid” have attracted millions of fans to their MySpace site.

Their debut UK single, “Stay The Night”, is released later this month and the girls play at the Manchester Roadhouse tomorrow.
