SOUTHAMPTON songstress Charley Macaulay returns to the live arena after a year's absence tonight.

The evening, at the Frog & Frigate, will be a stripped down gig with keyboard, guitar, drums and vocals, plus a few tunes performed with the talented KIMMYbeatbox.

Charley said: "I cannot wait to show you guys what I've been working on in the studio! I'm really looking forward to doing a fresh and original show for you, it's been way to long and it's going to be wicked!"

Support comes from KIMMYbeatbox, JMYSTR, 4BZ & Calvin Nadgie, Emily Ireland, Thomas Seyah and CJ Edwards.
