The Gritterman

A festive tradition in the making, Orlando Weeks will revisit his debut book ‘The Gritterman’ and its companion album (produced by the Grammy-winning Markus Dravs) with three special live concert performances this Christmas time.

Joined by Paul Whitehouse as The Gritterman, Weeks will recreate the album with the backing of a full band and choir. His only previous performance of ‘The Gritterman’ was at London’s Union Chapel last year – a show that sold-out far in advance and was rapturously received.

'Last year's concert was very special,' says Weeks. 'It's going to be a real pleasure trying to recreate that atmosphere, not just in Union Chapel but in the Albert Hall too. This year my focus has been on writing a new album, so it will be nice to come back to The Gritterman music.'
