Phatfish
are one of  the top bands leading worship and teaching Bible truth through music in the UK today. They are well known through events such as New Word Alive, Spring Harvest, Keswick, Newday, Stoneleigh and the London Conventions, and have appeared regularly on the BBC’s ‘Songs of Praise’. Phatfish have released seven CDs and their songs, such as ‘There is a day’, ‘Holy, holy’, ‘Looking in the sky’ and ‘In Jesus’ are sung regularly in churches around the globe.

Lou Fellingham
is the lead singer of Phatfish, married to Nathan, a devoted mum, and considered by some to have “one of the finest voices in Christendom today”.  Lou is a recording artist in her own right and has just released her third solo album ‘Step into the light’.

Because we care about content, we want you to be able to hear the words clearly and comfortably. Song words will also be projected throughout.

Lou and Phatfish coming back to Wrexham

We're excited to announce that Lou Fellingham and Phatfish will be back in Wrexham on Saturday 16th October as part of their "In Jesus" tour. The concert will feature songs from their latest outstanding albums "Step into the Light" and "In Jesus".

More details to follow, so watch this space!

Tickets now on sale

"Songs of hope and inspiration from the one of UK’s leading worship songwriters, with special guest Mark Edwards."

Thursday 22nd October 2009, 7.30pm (doors 7pm)
William Aston Hall, Glyndŵr University, Wrexham (map)

Tickets £12 (unallocated seating)
Concessions £8 (U16, students, unemployed, seniors)

Our official box office is Illuminate, and for a small booking fee they will take your credit card orders over the phone on 01743 233657.

Many will be familiar with Stuart's work through the BBC's Songs of Praise and through events such as New Word Alive, The Keswick Convention, Mission:Worship, Mandate, and Spring Harvest. According to CCLI, songs such as In Christ Alone, How Deep The Father’s Love, The Power Of The Cross, and Beautiful Saviour are being widely used in churches across the UK and around the world, week in week out.

Mark Edwards is one of the most sought-after keyboard players and arrangers in contemporary Christian music. Having worked with the likes of Paul Weller and Chris Rea, and performed regularly at Ronnie Scott’s and jazz festivals around the world, he now produces and plays on albums by some of the best known names in Christian music, from Matt Redman to Graham Kendrick. His recent album, Hymn to Grace, is a beautiful blend of classical and jazz-influenced arrangements of hymns and songs.

The evening will be a mixture of Stuart with the band, solo songs from Stuart, and instrumental songs from Mark (with and without band). In contrast to our previous concerts, the style will tend towards jazz and folk, with subtle lighting. Some songs will be performance, and some congregational. Stuart will also talk about the process of writing, and the message behind his songs. There will be a mix of new material and
"old favourites".

Please help us by publicising this event in your church. We believe it will encourage and build up Christians in their faith, and provide a high-quality, zero-cringe experience for your non-Christian friends. If you can use any posters or flyers, please let us know. If you'd like to bring a large group along, please feel free to get in touch with us (not the box office) to discuss a group rate.

Tickets are also available over the counter from Manna in Wrexham and Wesley-Owen in Chester.

A date for your diary

We had planned to take a break from concerts this year. However, there's been a steady stream of enthusiastic "What's next?" enquiries, followed by a couple of exciting new releases: Stuart's brilliant new album Creation Sings, and In Jesus, arguably the best Phatfish album yet. So we've turned from our life of ease, knuckled down, done some hard work, and are now very pleased to announce:

Stuart Townend and band, the "Creation Sings" Tour
Thursday 22nd October, Glyndŵr University, Wrexham

Tickets will be £12 (with concessions priced at £8). They arrived from the printers today, and should be available for purchase very soon (details to follow shortly).

Flyers (A5) and posters (A4 and A3) are still at the printers, but we hope to start posting them out within the next couple of weeks. Please drop us a line if you want to make sure you are on our mailing list, or if you can use more than a handful.

We're still "in talks" with Phatfish, and hope to have some exciting in place for early next year. Watch this space!
