Liverpool Pride are ‘Proud’ to announce the latest act to perform at this year’s event. 1990s chart topper Heather Small of M People will take to the waterfront stage on Saturday 2nd August as part of what is becoming a fantastic line-up of entertainment for Pride’s ‘Glam Fairy Tales’ themed event and 5th Birthday.
Heather Small will join headline act Katy B on the Waterfront stage along with 80s pop songstress Sonia on the Stanley Street stage. With under two months until Liverpool Pride, many more acts are soon be announced.
After emerging from the Manchester club scene, M People shot to fame in the early 1990s. The distinctive voice of Heather Small soon became synonymous with M People records featuring on classic hits such as One Night in Heaven, Moving On Up and Search for the Hero.
Through their career spanning 3 decades, Heather Small and M People have become one of the biggest dance acts in the U.K. selling over 11 million records. The mid 1990s saw Heather Small and M People win a Brit Award and receive the prestigious Mercury Music Prize. And now on Saturday 2nd August, the band are set to captivate audiences with some of their greatest feel good and empowering hits at what is sure to be the biggest Liverpool Pride event to date.
This year marks the 5th anniversary for Liverpool Pride, which was established in 2010 and takes place each year to coincide with the date of murdered gay teenager Michael Causer 6 years ago. The theme for this year’s event is Glam Fairy Tales, with those attending encouraged to come dressed in their most wild and wonderful interpretations of the theme.
Last year’s Pride was the biggest to date, attracting 65,000 revellers over two sites, with visitors travelling from all around the world to join in the fun. As the list of confirmed performers continues to grow and excitement builds, this year’s fabulous ‘Glam Fairy Tale’ is set to be the biggest and best Pride event so far!
