Manfreds offer a musical mix at The Capitol, Horsham

The ’60s group Manfred Mann is now considered one of the finest and most respected bands from that era.

Their numerous hits were R&B based with an undercurrent of jazz – an unusual but winning combination of playing style and substance.

As a result, their records are often described as having a timeless quality.

Now, some 55 years on, The Manfreds, together with original frontman Paul Jones, are set to perform their best songs.

These include ‘Do Wah Diddy Diddy’, one of the most popular and instantly recognisable songs of the 1960s and still the biggest crowd-pleaser at their live shows.

The musicians will also offer a mix of jazz and blues covers from their new album Makin’ Tracks.

Paul Jones (harmonica) will be joined by Mike Hugg (keyboards), Tom McGuinness (guitar), Rob Townsend (drums), Marcus Cliffe (bass) and Simon Currie (saxophone/flute).

Tickets cost £22.
