Mud are a glam rock band whose current line-up includes two surviving original members. They are playing Brudenell Social Club in Burley, Leeds, with a set of their classic hits.

Mud are a glam rock band whose first hit, 'Crazy', was produced by Mickie Most and written by Nicky Chinn and Mike Chapman. Across their career they have had three UK number one singles, eleven UK top 10 hits and fifteen UK top 40 entries, with further success in Europe, Scandinavia and other regions.

Two original members remain. Rob Davis has become a songwriter whose number ones include Kylie Minogue's 'Can't Get You Out of My Head'and Sophie Ellis Bextor's 'Groovejet'. Ray Stiles has been a member of the Hollies for thirty-six years and continues to tour with them. Les Gray and David Mount, the other original members, have died.

Keith Read plays guitar, sharing vocals with Ray Stiles, while Ian Parker, also a long-established Hollies member, plays keyboards and provides additional arrangements for the original Mud records. Paul Castleman, a studio musician and long-time friend of Rob and Ray, is on drums. The set comprises 15 faithful reproductions of classic Mud hits, interspersed with anecdotes from the band's past. The concert takes place at Brudenell Social Club, which began as a working men's club and mainly hosts pop, rock and indie concerts.
