The Fin and finalist boy band 5 After Midnight will perform on stage at Shrewsbury's Buttermarket.

It is part of a publicity tour ahead of a series of live arena concerts by the X Factor contestants starting in February.

Saara will be on stage on January 14 and the following Saturday, 5 After Midnight will be entertaining the crowds.

The 29-year-old singer, who already has a large following in Scandinavia, has just celebrated a lucrative deal with Sony Music UK and Sony Music Finland.

She is working in collaboration with superstar Sia on an album that is expected to be released next year.

Saara's deal with Sony Music keeps her in the fold with X Factor boss Simon Cowell, whose own Syco Records label is closely tied with Sony in the UK.

The Buttermarket gigs are open to anyone, although those under the age of 14 must be accompanied by an adult.
