Tony Hadley has unveiled the details of his upcoming 2025 tour, which will be a celebration of swing and crooner classics, as well as his own hits reimagined.
‘The Christmas Big Band Tour' 2025 will see Hadley perform a selection of timeless jazz standards and swing anthems in his distinctive, powerhouse voice, with classics from the likes of Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, and Elvis Presley. He’ll also be blending the old with the new by performing stylish reworkings of Spandau Ballet classics, such as ‘True', ‘Gold', and ‘Through The Barricades'.
Hadley’s ‘The Christmas Big Band Tour' 2025 follows on from the success of his previous ‘Big Swing' tour last year which saw him perform to sold out audiences across the country, and also the release of his ‘The Mood I’m In’ swing album in 2024.
Tony will be joined on the tour as ever by his Fabulous TH Band as well as a full live brass section. On the tour, Tony says:
“I absolutely loved last year’s tour with my big band. It rekindled my excitement and passion for the songs that formed such an important part of my childhood, songs that inspired me to pursue a singing career.
For this year’s tour we will be visiting some of my favourite swing classics along with big band songs that I have never performed before. I never tire of performing True, Gold and Through the Barricades and look forward to including these great songs in the set as well!”
