Beautiful South Will Reunite


Ex-members of the British pop group Beautiful South, which fell apart in 2007 told the press about their wish to reunite, said New Musical Express. However, vocalist Paul Heaton, guitarist David Rotheray and bassist Sean Welch are not planning to share the same wish with the rest of them. Practically, another half and maybe the most influential half shall not be there again. The band should now be called The New Beautiful South and will include singers Alison Wheeler and David Hemingway, plus  drummer David Stead. Their first concert is going to take place in Hull, (Yorkshire, England) on March 29. Following various remarks given by them it’s easy to understand that their track list will incorporate not only the old hits. Also, it seems that this band had never really fell apart, “We never really split up – all that happened was Paul made the decision to leave,” added Stead. So, this band seems to roll on again.


Beautiful South was created in Hull back in 1989 and since then they’ve released ten albums which smoothly “paraglide” into the 90’s music scene. Their last release “Superbi” came out in 2006 counquering number six on the British charts. The most successful ones are “Blue Is the Colour” (1996) and “Quench” (1998).
