Aqualung, the artist project of Grammy & Ivor Novello award winning songwriter Matt Hales, brings a unique take on his favourite album, the Beach Boys classic PET SOUNDS, to Band on The Wall

Matt writes: “Come spend the evening with me, my brother and some wonderful friends and relations as we show you what this beautiful, beautiful record means to us.”This special night will also include songs from Aqualung’s 20 year career, songs like Strange and Beautiful’ & ‘Brighter Than Sunshine’, that fuse emotion-driven melodies, considered vocals and emotional depth.Beyond his own recordings, Hales has collaborated with Olivia Dean, Lianne La Havas, Paloma Faith, and Jason Mraz, bringing his signature touch to some of the decade’s most memorable songs.
