Mr Hudson Sells Out The Central Library

A showcase concert at Poole Central Library with two of the most hotly-tipped new acts of 2007 has proved a big hit with music lovers.

Tickets have sold out for the one-off concert, featuring Mr Hudson And The Library , at the Central Library, in the Dolphin Shopping Centre, on Saturday February 3.

Mr Hudson has been widely-touted for stardom in 2007 and already appeared on the BBC television show ‘Later with Jools Holland’.  The band has also played live on Radio 2 and had a ‘Single of the Week’ on Radio 1.

The concert is part of a nationwide tour and project to encourage young adults to use local libraries.

The Central Library has previously staged live classical music, but never a pop concert.

Tickets for the concert were limited to a maximum of 120 on the grounds of health and safety.

John Lane, Library Services Manager, Borough of Poole, said: “The concert is already sold out and we are having to turn people away. To stage a pop concert with such a hotly-tipped act is a real coup for the library. ”   

Mr Hudson will be supported by Adele, who was recently chosen by the Observer Music Magazine as one of the new stars of 2007.
