THE UK vocal harmony quartet G4 are set to perform in Carlisle Cathedral this Christmas as part of their 20th anniversary tour.

The four-piece vocal troupe first came to prominence when they finished second in Series 1 of The X Factor in 2004, and are known for their operatic delivery of modern pop songs.

Carlisle Cathedral said: "We are looking forward to welcoming G4 Official back to Carlisle Cathedral on Tuesday, December 10 as part of their 20th Anniversary Tour!

"Step into G4's world of vocal enchantment as they take you on an awe-inspiring musical journey. From traditional carols to sacred contemplations, classical classics to popular favourites; all the way to modern festive hits."
