Folk rock legends Lindisfarne will bring their catalogue of classic hits to The Platform in Morecambe in November.

It was Lindisfarne's album Fog on The Tyne that gave them their breakthrough in the UK.

Topping the album charts early in 1972 for four weeks, the release remained on chart for 56 weeks in total while Meet Me on the Corner, one of two songs written by bassist Rod Clements, reached No 5 as a single.

They continue entertaining audiences with an extensive repertoire of world-renowned songs delivered in the inimitably engaging way that has trademarked the band's stage act right back to 1970.
