Touring
To promote the album, the House & Garage Orchestra toured and performed live shows around the UK[2] in venues such as the Albert Hall in Manchester, Tramshed in Cardiff, Liverpool Olympia, Brighton Dome, Portsmouth Guildhall, KOKO, Shepherd's Bush Empire and the Roundhouse,[3] and continued to tour throughout 2021 and 2022.[4]
In a review of their show at The Globe in Cardiff, Campbell Prosser, writing for Buzz Magazine said: "It was refreshing and impressive to hear iconic UK garage tracks performed with live musicians and instruments" and that "The vocal performances were a real highlight." Summing up the review, he concluded: "Although the magnitude of the performance wasn't exactly as expected – albeit likely due to my own misguided assumptions – the artists and musicians made up for this with their visible passion for the genre. They've clearly mastered what was/is the garage scene and adding this twist breathes new life into some iconic tracks."[5]
Chart performance
Garage Classics reached No. 37 on the UK Digital Albums Chart.
