Although they now live and work in very diverse parts of the country, Close Shaves is coming together for what has become a bi-annual visit to Sidmouth for a weekend together with their families.
Chris said: “The concert will include a variety of music, including arrangements of Gershwin, Cole Porter and the Beatles, mixed with traditional barbershop and folk songs.”
