UB40 Featuring Ali Campbell Sold-Out Sunday at Cardiff Castle

Despite the weather, Reggae legend Ali Campbell well and truly conquered the city as he performed a hit filled set at TK Maxx presents Depot Live at Cardiff Castle. 

UB40 featuring Ali Campbell brought their iconic sound to the historic venue (Sunday) and they did not disappoint. 

With perfect music for a chilled weekend, they kicked off the night with Small Axe and Food For Thought before segueing perfectly into classics If it Happens Again and Homely Girl. 

Duets of Cathy’s Clown and Would I Lie with velvet voiced support artist Bitty Mclean fitted perfectly into the 90-minute set which also included Burden of Shame, Cherry Oh Baby, Many Rivers and One In Ten. 

To end the night, Campbell was accompanied by a chorus of Welsh voices joining him with Red Red Wine and Kingston Town before a finale of hit cover (I Can’t Help) Falling In Love With You. 

Opening the night was Reggae Roast featuring Mr Williamz and a set from British reggae singer/songwriter Bitty Mclean. 

TK Maxx presents Depot Live at Cardiff Castle continues on Saturday with headliner Jess Glynne.
