Thousands of music lovers rocked out as The Commitments brought a touch of soul to the Northumberland Live festival.

The “World’s Hardest Working Band” headlined the day-long event on Saturday, which drew in the crowds to Bedlington’s Gallagher Park.

The eight-piece band - headed up by frontman Dave Finnegan who played bouncer and drummer Mickah Wallace in The Commitments film - played all the classics, including Mustang Sally and In the Midnight Hour.

They were joined on the bill by The Sleeze Sisters, The Understudies, Just So and Unplugged.

Festival-goers also enjoyed a range of food as well as a display by the Royal Logistics Corps’ parachute display team The Silver Stars.

Northumberland Live organiser, Mel Jackson, said: “The day has been fantastic - it has been jumping.
