The Mayflower Southampton

Jools Holland

Sun 11 November 2012

Sun 7.30pm

Boogie-woogie piano master Jools Holland is set to take his Rhythm & Blues Orchestra on the road once again for what has now become one of the UK's most popular annual tours. The 34 date tour will bring Jools’ famous 'big-band' sound and the ultimate party experience across the length and breadth of the country, with some very special guests to accompany him. Jools will be at The Mayflower theatre Southampton on Sunday 11 November at 7.30pm.

Fine Young Cannibals frontman Roland Gift will be Jools' special guest in Southampton. The singer had huge success with the band during the 1980s with a No. 1 UK album (1988’s The Raw and The Cooked), and two No.1 hit singles 'She Drives Me Crazy' and 'Good Thing' – the latter also holds the honour of being the most successful record that Jools Holland has ever guested on, after it went No. 1 in 17 countries. Roland will be joining Jools on 17 dates of the tour.

Also featuring the astounding vocals of Ruby Turner, Louise Marshall and acclaimed trombonist Rico Rodriguez, Jools Holland and his Rhythm & Blues Orchestra tour will provide audiences with a foot-stomping show-stopping performance that never ever fails to leave the audience wanting more.
