THE Christians bring their 30th anniversary tour to Southampton's 1865 tomorrow night.
Renowned for an endless string of soulful yet socially aware hits - Forgotten Town, Ideal World, Born Again, Harvest for the World, What's in a Word, Hooverville, Words, Father, The Bottle and many more - The Christians enjoyed huge acclaim in the late 80s and early 90s both in the UK and Europe.
Still headed by enigmatic lead singer Garry Christian, who has only gained in vocal stature (and wit) over the years, the band are enjoying a revival and are touring to much acclaim.
Their latest album WE, released a year ago, reflects on life issues such as loss, breakups and struggles in ten soulful tracks.
Hear the best of the album and all the hits from the back catalogue.
