After more than a decade of delivering dancefloor-filling funk and heartfelt soul, Smoove & Turrell are hitting the road once again with The Singles Tour — a celebration of their biggest tunes, fan favourites, and timeless grooves that have defined their career.
Known for their powerhouse live shows and electric chemistry, this tour brings together the duo’s signature blend of northern grit, sweet soul, and infectious funk, taking audiences on a journey through the standout singles that made them one of the UK’s most beloved live acts
Hailing from Newcastle, Jonathan Scott Watson (Smoove) and John Turrell have built a reputation as the beating heart of the UK’s modern soul scene.
Since their debut album Antique Soul (2009), the pair have continued to refine their unmistakable sound — combining classic songwriting with contemporary production and Turrell’s unmistakable voice.
Over the years, they’ve earned BBC 6 Music A-List spots, countless festival appearances, and a fiercely loyal following that spans funk heads, soul purists, and dance music lovers alike.
The Singles Tour – What to Expect
From the breakout anthem “I Can’t Give You Up” to modern classics like “You Could’ve Been a Lady,” “Slow Down,” and “Will You Be Mine,” The Singles Tour is a high-energy celebration of over 15 years of music that bridges old-school soul and contemporary dancefloor heat.
Expect:
- Career-spanning hits from across seven studio albums
- Unstoppable live band energy featuring top-tier musicianship
- Fresh reworks and new material exclusive to this tour
- The signature Geordie soul swagger that’s made them festival favourites from Glastonbury to Bestival
“A masterclass in modern soul – uplifting, raw, and real.” — Craig Charles, BBC 6 Music

PLEASE NOTE THE VENUE RELIES ON THE INCOME FROM DINING TO ENSURE WE CAN BOOK ALL THE GREAT ACTS PERFORMING.
Income from the provision of pizzas is very important to the venue and if you have booked a table it is a requirement that all people sat at tables order food - a salad alternative is available to pizzas. Please do ensure that all individuals will be ordering on your table - if this is not the case please cancel your table so others who are looking to dine can do so. Our apologies to raise this but recently we have had many tables (some very large) where less than 50% of those sat at tables have ordered food. Financially this is a real problem to the sustainability of the venue.
- All seating at tables must purchase a pizza - so please do not book a table if everyone is not eating.
- Please ensure that you arrive 10 minutes before the time slot allocated to order your pizzas prior to your booking time.
- Tables not seated within 15 minutes of the allocated time may be lost and allocated to other audience members wishing to order pizzas.
- If you wish to book a table for 6 or more please email info@acapela.co.uk
Please note that all of our pizzas are made fresh to order. It may take up to 45 minutes to be served during busy periods.
IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO BOOK A TABLE YOU CAN STILL ORDER PIZZAS ON THE NIGHT (USUALLY ON BUSY NIGHTS NO LATER THAN 7.15PM) AND WE WILL SERVE THEM TO YOU WHEREVER YOU ARE SAT IN THE VENUE - IN A PIZZA BOX.
