Tavares

Friday 9th September

Grammy-award winning R&B singing group Tavares – best known for their infectious sound and close harmony, have announced their ‘Greatest Hits Tour 2022’ commencing this September.

Tavares are Chubby, Pooch and Butch,  (who are brothers) will be performing their Greatest Hits – amongst the classics: ‘It Only Takes a Minute Girl’; ‘Heaven Must Be Missing an Angel’;  ‘She’s Gone’ and ‘More Than a Woman’ (from the iconic  soundtrack ‘Saturday Night Fever)  – to name a few…

At the height of their career, Tavares composed of five Cape-Verdean American brothers – Ralph, Chubby, Pooch, Butch and Tiny.  Born and raised in Providence, Rhode Island, they were one of the most heavily covered bands of the Disco era and sold tens of thousands of copies of their sheet music to club bands and budding musicians all over the world.  The eldest member Ralph Tavares  died last year two days short of his 80th birthday.

Chubby, Pooch and Butch  carry on the Tavares family tradition, as they continue to perform sold-out concerts around the world with no end in sight!
