Celebrate New Year's Eve with AVERAGE WHITE BAND

Celebrate New Year\'s Eve with one of the best soul and funk bands in the history of music and enjoy a complimentary champagne toast at intermission. Though best known for their timeless instrumental mega-hit “Pick Up the Pieces,” the band\'s strength actually lay in their consistently accomplished songwriting, stretching across several gold selling albums and multi-Grammy Award nominations for the legendary Atlantic Records. Somewhat incongruously, given their Scottish roots, the six piece took the influences of their R&B heroes - people like Marvin Gaye, James Brown, Donny Hathaway and others - and developed their own \'authentic\' sound which was eagerly adopted by black audiences in the U.S. and elsewhere. While a good number of cuts – “Cut The Cake” and “Let\'s Go Round Again” - became hit singles, many other album tracks, such as “Schoolboy Crush” and “Stop The Rain” became much sampled grooves. Many more tunes, such as “Cloudy,” and “A Love Of Your Own” - amongst many others - stand alongside some of the finest soul album tracks ever recorded.
