Britain’s Got Talent finalists Jack and Tim Goodacre have joined the Sunday line-up of Jimmy’s Festival.
The son and father singing duo, from Eccles, near Attleborough, will stage a sing-along to a few of their avourite songs and preview some original material at Jimmy’s Farm, Wherstead.
“The biggest change is everyone knows you... the responses we get are lovely and sometimes comical. It’s fun,” said Tim.
In their audition, performing their song The Lucky Ones, they were given the golden buzzer by judge Simon Cowell, which put them straight through to the live shows.
Ater performing another song they had written - Big Wide World - in the semi-final, they were voted in the top three most popular acts by the public.
Votes from Simon Cowell, Alesha Dixon and Amanda Holden sent the pair through to the final.
They are a familiar sight performing on the streets of Norwich, with Jack being hailed the city’s youngest busker.
