Music Hall on 9th October as they embark on a 26-date UK tour in October and
November with their brand-new show, 100 Number One Hits. Expect fast-paced
medleys and mind-bending mashups as The Sons of Pitches attempt to hit their target of 100
legendary tracks in just one evening. From Michael Jackson to The Beatles, ABBA to Eminem,
the show caters to audiences of all ages and is not to be missed. The group, who specialise
in a cappella and beatbox, won the BBC2 TV series The Naked Choir in 2015. Formed in 2013
when they were all studying at Birmingham University, the group comprises six members,
Joseph Novelli, Joseph Hinds, Joseph Belham, James Hughes, Joshua Mallett and Midé
Adenaike. To avoid confusion, the three Joes are known amongst the group as Novs, Bells
and Hinds. Following their success on The Naked Choir , in 2016 they toured the UK for the first
time, following it with a new stage show in 2017, celebrating the world of television. They have
