Razorlight opened last week’s concert at Sandown Park Racecourse with their hit song Back to the Start, getting the sun soaked crowd all revved up for what was a fantastic concert from the UK rock’n’roll band from London.
Johnny Borrell and his band members Skully, Carl and Bjorn entertained the crowd with a lively performance of hit songs from their albums Slip Way Fires and Up all Night including In the Morning, Wire to Wire and Golden Touch.
The highlight of the evening was a packed crowd dancing around to the iconic ‘America’.
The evening also helped raise funds for The Children’s Trust, a national charity based in Surrey which provides care for some of the UK’s most severely disabled children.
Six of the children currently at the Trust were lucky enough to meet the band themselves. Zoe Savage, head of events at The Children’s Trust said: ”We are thrilled with the success of the evening and would like to say a special thank you to the sponsor, Devine Homes and everyone involved in the evening”
The final summer live music night at Sandown Park, performing live after racing on Thursday, August 5 will be the Irish pop sensation Westlife.
The band, who are currently on a UK summer tour called The Where we are Tour, will be performing classic songs such as Flying without wings, Uptown Girl as well as new numbers from their latest album.
