Barlow announces solo show

Following his two critically acclaimed solo shows at the Royal Albert Hall in London last year, Gary Barlow has announced a full UK and Ireland tour starting in November including two hometown Manchester shows and intimate Irish shows at Dublin’s Olympia Theatre and the Waterfront, Belfast.

Tickets from £38 are on sale at 10am this Friday, October 19 from www.ticketmaster.ie and www.waterfront.co.uk only.

Gary said: “I’m really excited about these dates. Playing live is my favourite thing and I haven’t played a solo show for over a year now. Last year playing two London shows was brilliant, we all had such a good time, so I thought right let’s get out and see the rest of the country.”

After 20 years in the business, over 50 million records sold, eight Number One albums, 14 Numbe One singles, seven million concert tickets sold and six Ivor Novello Awards, Gary Barlow is regarded as one of Britain’s most successful singer songwriters.

Together with Howard Donald, Jason Orange, Mark Owen and Robbie Williams he is also a member of one of the biggest British bands of all time - Take That.

Gary was recently named in the Queen’s birthday honours list and was awarded an OBE for his huge contribution to British music as well as his significant charitable endeavours.

Gary recently organised the hugely successful Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Concert outside Buckingham Palace, gathering together some of the biggest names from the last 60 years to perform. Gary currently sits as head judge on television show The X Factor.
