I've been a Sugababes fan since I first heard Overload way back in 2000. It was, and still is, a pop classic. Over the years, I managed to catch them live a couple of times. The first time I caught Sugababes live was way back at Creamfields 2002. Unfortunately Siobhan had left the band by then and been replaced by Heidi, so I never got to see the original lineup. Did it matter much at the time to me? No, not at all, I was just their to party! As a side note, post Sugababes, Siobhan went on to release two solo albums, Revolution in Me in 2003 and Ghosts in 2007.

There's a fantastic program of events lined up for January 2020 and you can check them out on their website.
the highlight for me though has to be Face To Face With The Men Who Sold The World with Tony Visconti and Woody Woodmansey on Sunday January 12th in the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland. That should be fascinating.
