BRADFORD duo Issimo is to headline the Burley-in-Wharfedale Poppy Appeal concert tomorrow.

The duo, made up of Marc Otway and Abi Uttley, entered the national Rock The House competition as individuals, with Marc from Yeadon finishing runner-up in 2012.

The following year Abi, who is also an actress and has been seen in Coronation Street and Emmerdale, entered and was the overall winner. She performed for an audience of MPs and music industry figures in the Houses of Parliament.

Another Rock The House finalist was 16-year-old Ellie Holmes, who will be the support act at the Burley-in-Wharfedale gig, performing self-written material as well as covers. Ellie has honed her skills at open mic nights around Guiseley and Yeadon and has produced videos of her work.

Completing the line-up is Elliot Long of Burley-in-Wharfedale, a vocalist, guitarist and pianist who has twice reached the London 02 final of Open Mic UK. A former member of the band Jensen, Elliot is now a solo artist.

The gig is at Burley-in-Wharfedale Social Club on Friday. Call Rachel on 07507 125141 for further information.
