Part of the most successful girl band of our generation, and with over 20 million record sales behind her, Nicola Roberts will be coming home to Liverpool for her first exclusive solo performance, including her new single ‘Beat of my Drum’. Wonderland, who were voted ‘Best Band’ at this year’s Glamour Women of the Year Awards, will also be performing their latest hits on the Echo Arena’s stage, having previously toured with the likes of Westlife, Boyzone and Olly Murs.
