One of the legendary Motown record label’s most iconic acts, Martha Reeves & The Vandellas are returning to England for a special tour almost 50 years since first hitting the charts with the bluesy, soulful Come and Get These Memories. Now you can relive those memories at Oxford’s O2 on Sunday (December 12) when Martha, alongside her sisters in song (and life), Lois and Delphine, perform their greatest hits and more.

Reeves established herself as one of music’s greatest voices from the outset of her singing career. Crowned “Motown’s ultimate soul diva”, she has worked alongside some legendary artists including Marvin Gaye and James Brown and with The Vandellas recorded some classic tracks that will never be forgotten. The Grammy-nominated ‘Heat Wave’, the gospel-tinged Nowhere to Run, the classic soul favourite My Baby Loves Me and signature, Dancing In The Streets.

As classics never fade, new and diverse audiences are constantly being introduced to the Martha Reeves songbook whether it is through movie soundtracks, cover versions paying homage to the singer and her music, or simply through current artists like Amy Winehouse and Adele singing Reeve’s praises.

Martha’s latest self-produced and critically acclaimed CD Home To You, offers the kind of straightforward soul singing sadly absent from many of today’s artists. Nominated for two UK festival awards for “Best Headliner” and “Feel Good Performance of the Summer”, Martha Reeves and The Vandellas are true performers, putting their heart and soul into every show.

Watching them live is as unforgettable as their music.
