Another Great Night with Joe McElderry

Last weekend we had the pleasure of once again working with Joe McElderry.  Joe, winner of XFactor and Popstar to Opera Star, gave another incredible performance and brought the house down with 'Nessun Dorma'.  Great voice and thoroughly nice bloke!  To see pictures of The Lord Mayor's Civic Ball with Joe McElderry and The Paul James Band please visit our FaceBook page.

"Thanks you so much for performing at The Civic Ball - we have received so much positive feedback that it was the best yet!!  Look forward to seeing you next year.  Many thanks, Julie (Event Coordinator)"


Alan Shearer joins The Paul James Band

Thanks to the committed staff and supporters of The Alan Shearer Foundation for a truly memorable night last Friday at The Gateshead Hilton.  Joe McElderry opened the evening with a fantastic performance then guests were treated to an incredible set from Ronan Keating and his band.  Later in the evening we were completely surprised and honoured when Footballing Legend Alan Shearer accepted an invitation from the DJ to join The Paul James Band on stage.  As well as being one of our nation's top sporting personalities and a tireless charity fundraiser, Alan is also a competent vocalist and raised the roof with his performance of 'All Night Long'.  To find out more about Alan's charity or make a donation visit:  www.alanshearerfoundation.org.uk
