This once-only event celebrates the music of Liverpool-born singer, songwriter, musician and record producer Ian Broudie, in arrangements prepared especially for performance by the Lightning Seeds with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Clark Rundell, and special guests.

The Lightning Seeds were formed by Broudie in the late 1980s and scored an early hit with the song, Pure; they have produced six albums to date, and have enjoyed widespread mainstream success. Their football anthem, Three Lions, has twice been at number one in different versions recorded with Frank Skinner and David Baddiel.
