Winehouse tribute not to be missed
The highly-acclaimed Amy Winehouse Experience – also known as Lioness – is at The Bungalow tonight.
Lioness provide an authentic tribute, featuring TV’s Stars In Their Eyes finalist Emma Wright, as Amy.
She is joined by a full five-piece backing band to re-create the authentic sound of a heady mix of jazz, soul and pop.
A full stage show showcasing the talent of the fallen songstress will take the audience on a journey through the emotional rollercoaster of her songwriting, and you’ll be guaranteed to be singing and dancing along.
Without a doubt, Lioness are designed to entertain and deliver the experience of Amy at her best.
