Next Door Bar, Albrighton are taking on the Christmas musical heavyweights with their own festive single.

Richard Evans, Griff, Emelye Evans, and Chris Coss have come together to pen ‘Pop Next Door for Christmas’, a musical ditty to combat loneliness and mental health issues and to celebrate the village’s community spirit.

The collective is looking to hit the high notes when they launch the video on YouTube on 1st Dec, with people encouraged to donate to The Albrighton Trust, Moat and Gardens – a centre that offers educational and recreational activities for people with disabilities, special needs, and illness.

“Albrighton is a very special community and we wanted to put the village on the musical map with our festive hit,” explained Rich Evans, who leads on vocals and bass.

“As a community-based idea, we thought it would be great to raise some funds for a local charity and the decision was made to support the Albrighton Moat, Trust and Gardens, a fantastic resource that does so much for hundreds of people every year.”
