Music - Party in the Park

The Party in the Park continues from strength to strength featuring many top acts in the pop industry, catering for as many tastes as possible. Locally, this music extravaganza has been located at Lydiard Park Swindon and has brought some of the pop world top artists.

We feature some of these acts below, and since their appearance some groups or acts have either split up and gone solo, or decided to call it a day in the pop business.

This show has been the South West's Biggest and Best Party in the Park. Mirroring the success of previous years music extravaganza, star studded top chart groups make this a great day out:

A1
The top boy band entertained with their top releases including Caught in the Middle, No More, which reached No6 in the charts. Dancing to the two No1 hits Same Old Brand New You and Take On Me certainly got the female element of the audience screaming.

A1 consisted of: Christian, Paul, Ben and Mark providing plenty of top releases and all-round entertainment. A girl's favourite!

The sassy young trio, who were named Best Band at the Maxim Women of the Year Awards, are the first ladies of garage, brighten the day with their top hits like the debut single of Why and the later hit All I Want, which became one of the big releases of the summer 2001. Uniquely, the girls take their position seriously and want to come across as strong role models.

Liberty X

Kelli, Kevin, Jessica, Tony & Michelle originally found fame as the five losing finalists in "Popstars". However, they quickly put that disappointment behind them, despite plenty of individual offers to go solo. The guys have already had top 5 success with their debut single "Thinking It Over", taken from the album of the same name.

Liberty X featured their new single, Just A Little, which is an upbeat pop tune with a slice of R&B. It was already jamming the dance floors up and down the UK dragging people left, right and centre into an irresistible groove. since then has become a favourite in many top-40 hits of all time.

H & Claire bravely took on a new challenge – going solo – ok not quite solo, in fact they were more of a duo really. The former chart toppers from Steps, brought a smile back to all the faces of their fans; who have been miserable since ‘that day.’ the popular energetic pop group annouced they were to disband. Thye returned for a short while in the pop world and brought back the Steps- dance routines with some of their routines.

"How are they going to do that!" you cry in disbelief, by dancing to the super-infectious ‘DJ’. They always provided catchy music and dance routines, just stepping back a few years you could say.

3SL
Comprise of Steve Scott-Lee, Andy Scott-Lee and Ant Scott-Lee appeared at the Party in the Park. The group 3SL are brothers to the famous Lisa Scott-Lee formerly from Steps. The threesome are are football crazy and broke into the charts in 2002 with a powerful pop anthem 'Take it Easy'.

Jamelia

MasaiLimahlJamie Benson

Many other top acts appeared in this annual extravaganza, which forced organisers to open the show an hour earlier. The festival line-up was so hot, famous stars wanted to be part of the success including eighties star Limalh, not to shy singing his hits from Kajagoogoo. Limahl has a dual role nowadays playing concerts and festival under the name of Limahl and a theatre career in musical shows under his original name of Chris Hamill. The female duo Masai alias Anna Crane and Sharon Amos provided the male fans with some heart pulsing routines. The Drifters provided a lengthy melody of their famous 28 No 1 hits. There will not be a group on the stage today, that can equal the 50 years of true professional entertainment provided by The Drifters. The legendary harmony group have kept their music fresh and turning out hit after hit. Other groups included Honeytrap, TV's All Stars, Dead Abigails from Australia, Siana in the international newcomers section to Wiltshire was joined by Rebekah Del Rio from the USA. Jamie Benson going solo, originally from the all-girl rock band Hepburn, provided a selection of vibrating songs too.
