THERE is still time to buy tickets for the Josh Curnow concert at Launceston Town Hall on Friday, March 24.

The event is being held to raise funds for the mayor’s charity, Launceston Town Band, and Josh Curnow will be supported by the popular local band, The Countrymen.

Josh, who lives in Indian Queens with his partner Jen, wowed the Britain’s Got Talent crowd when he reached the semi-final of the competition.

He has been busy gigging in this part of the world since playing in front of a live audience of 18.4-million people when on the talent show last May. He recently played gigs at Crooklets Inn, Bude, and The Countryman Inn, near Launceston.

Josh has been a full-time musician for about four years. He already has two UK tours under his belt, and has played alongside names including Matt Cardle, Atomic Kitten, Blue and Sam Bailey. He has supported Scouting For Girls in Cornwall, and most recently supported Adam Ant.

He has released two EPs, and is now working on his next exciting project, in the studio recording his first album. Josh said he is ‘putting everything into’ the album, which will come out later this year.

With a lot of days spent in the studio, Josh is having to look after his voice and cut back a bit on the gigging, so Friday, March 24 at Launceston Town Hall will be a chance to see Josh perform before the nationwide release of his album, after which he will travel to gig in the South of France and then embark on a UK tour.

The evening will kick off at 7pm on Friday, March 24 at Launceston Town Hall. Tickets are £5 in advance from crbo.co.uk/joshcurnow or by calling 01726 879500, or from the Tourist Information Centre in Launceston, Liskeard, Bodmin or Looe. £6 on the door.

Tickets are also available in advance by calling 01566 773479.

Tables are also available to be booked for up to eight people at £40.
