Musical maestro Jools Holland and his famous Rhythm & Blues Orchestra return to our transformed venue as part of their newly announced 2024 Autumn/Winter tour, with special guests Marc Almond and Toby Lee.

From his years in the internationally acclaimed duo Soft Cell to the successful solo career that followed, Marc Almond has sold over 30 million records worldwide with his list of hit songs including ‘Say Hello, Wave Goodbye, ‘Touch’ and, of course, ‘Tainted Love’. Audiences will also be treated to the supreme talent of blues guitar prodigy and social media sensation, Toby Lee, described by Joe Bonamassa as “a future superstar of the blues”.

Fans will be thrilled to hear that the shows will once again feature the incredible Ruby Turner and the outstanding vocals of Louise Marshall, and Sumudu Jayatilaka. Together with the skilful musicianship of the Rhythm & Blues Orchestra, which features drums from original Squeeze member Gilson Lavis, Jools Holland will be performing tracks spanning his entire solo career. With a catalogue of boogie woogie classics to choose from, the show is sure to have fans of both Jools and Marc Almond on their feet!
