Your chance to hear the Seekers Story

- COMPETITIO­N

The Seekers Story with Athol Guy and Friends Double Pass. Performing at Clarence Street Theatre, Hamilton, Friday, March 24 at 4.30pm.

The Seekers Story is written and narrated by founding member of The Seekers, bassist Athol Guy, and celebrates one of Australia’s most revered music groups, and we have a double pass up for grabs for you to be a part of this landmark occasion.

The show is a musical and visual spectacula­r that takes the audience on Athol’s personal journey with The Seekers from the 1960s to the modern day, featuring live performanc­es of many of The Seekers’ hit songs.

The Seekers Story is a personal experience, taking in Athol’s earliest musical moments leading up to the unmistakea­ble Seekers sound and their internatio­nal success.

It features unique and rarelyseen footage from the band’s history and live performanc­es of their biggest hits, as well as other iconic songs from the 60s era that influenced Athol and the group in their early years.

The show is well overdue for Seekers fans. Included are some background moments that weren’t always revealed in band’s public exposure and celebrate their incredible five-decades worth of achievemen­ts.

That, and of course the incredible back catalogue of songs that still resonate with fans of all ages.

The Seekers smashed onto the internatio­nal music scene with their debut hit I’ll Never Find Another You.

They joined a massive concert in London featuring the likes of The Rolling Stones and The Beatles, which earned them internatio­nal acclaim.

Their follow-up single A World Of Our Own went further to demonstrat­e that The Seekers were the band to watch out for as it knocked The Beatles from their place in the top of the charts.

They’ve got an incredible back catalogue featuring hits such as The Carnival Is Over and Morningtow­n Ride to name a few.

The band’s line-up – Judith Durham, Athol Guy, Keith Potger and Bruce Woodley – were the first group to reach number one on the United Kingdom charts with their first three singles.

Audiences are encouraged to be prepared to sing along and celebrate The Seekers Story – the story behind one of Australia’s best loved bands.
