The Christians are coming to The Rec Rooms in Horsham, West Sussex

The Christians will be playing at the Rec Rooms in Horsham for one-night only on Saturday 23rd October 2021.

Described as “the Temptations in ripped jeans.” by one rock critic, the Liverpool band’s melodies and harmonies have a deep emotional undercurrent. Feeding on accusations, protest, despair and even self-doubt, their “socially aware soul” made an impact on the complacent music scene of the late 80s. The band’s name came from the surname of the three brothers that were originally in the line-up (Garry, Russell and Roger Christian). It was also, coincidentally, their songwriter/guitarist/keyboards player Henry Priestman’s middle name.

Their 1987 double-platinum debut album, “The Christians”, entered the album chart at No.2 and featured the Top 30 singles “Forgotten Town”, “Hooverville, “Ideal World” and “Born Again”.
