About Paul Heaton

Expect a singalong crowd rather than a hushed one. Paul Heaton's shows draw people who grew up on his songs, from Housemartins fans to those who followed him through The Beautiful South and beyond, and the mood is warm, wry and thoroughly communal. A Thursday evening slot means an early start for most, with doors well ahead of the performance and a crowd keen to make the most of a midweek night out. Expect sharp wit between songs and a set built on decades of well-loved melodies.

Gateshead is just as close and worth checking if Newcastle rooms are scarce, though it has fewer options.
