The London African Gospel Choir have announced their return to Dublin with a performance of Paul Simon’s classic album Graceland at the National Concert Hall on September 27.

Joining them will be African Gospel Choir Dublin, which will see 18 live vocalists on stage alongside a live band.

Attendees can expect unforgettable arrangements of Paul Simon’s songs from the renowned choir who frequently headline their own tours around the world.

Over the years the group has performed on stage and television with stars like Emile Sande, Mumford & Sons, Tom Jones and the Soweto Gospel Choir, with whom they made a triumphant appearance at London's 02 Arena, singing in front of 17,000 people.

Eurythmics' Annie Lennox has invited them to perform at a number of prestigious events, including the MIT Awards. The choir has also worked with actor/director Idris Elba, star of Mandela: Long Road to Freedom, who recruited them for an album celebrating South African music, recorded in tribute to Nelson Mandela.

Tickets for the London African Gospel Choir live at the National Concert Hall go on sale on July 28. They start from €32.50 and are available at www.selectivememory.ie, the National Concert Hall box-office and www.nch.ie.
