HE IS the Southampton singer turned superstar who has sold millions of records worldwide.

Now a club is celebrating Craig David, pictured right, in a unique way.

Tonight Junk nightclub in Bedford Place is hosting a night dedicated entirely to the garage and R&B star.

The night will feature everything diehard fans could want including life-sized cardboard cut-outs, facemasks and even a beard painting booth for fans to imitate the man himself.

Luca Pilato, event manager at Junk said: “He’s super talented and being from the city I think a lot of people have a special love for him here.”

Unfortunately event organisers have told guests not to expect to see the man himself but they will be playing all his best hits.

Craig, pictured, grew up on the Holy Rood estate in the city and also went to school at Bellemoor which is now known as Upper Shirley High.

He was honoured by the City of Southampton in 2013, as part of the 2013 Black History Month and he will also be headlining Southampton’s Common People Festival in the summer.

The event was dreamed up after the 7 Days and Rendezvous singer visited the club for a Radio 1 feature which showed the singer's relationship with Southampton.

He recently made a comeback to the music scene with tracks like When the Bassline Drops and his Radio 1 Live Lounge cover of Justin Bieber’s ‘Love Yourself’ which has since gone viral.
