Will Young To Play Scarborough Spa Theatre This Autumn!

by Patrick Billington • 18 Apr, 2024

Today Will Young has announced a brand new single, ‘Falling Deep’. This euphoric track is the first single taken from Will’s forthcoming ninth studio album, “Light It Up”, which is out on 9th August. To celebrate this new album, Will has just announced that his is embarking on his most intimate tour yet – taking shape as an up close and personal evening of acoustic performances, stories and conversation. The 50-date UK tour will kick off in September through to November and will be heading to the Spa Theatre on Saturday 12th October 2024. General on-sale begins on Friday 26th April. About the tour, Young says: “I’m very excited to be going to a lot of places I haven’t been. I wanted to go to smaller venues so I could properly get around the country rather than just playing the big cities.” For a performer who thrives on stage, having done eight sold-out national tours and countless festival appearances (he has performed at Glastonbury three times); it feels like he’s hitting a new stride with renewed vigour. “Whatever I do though,” Will said, contemplatively. “I can finally connect to the fun of it all and that is a place I never thought I would get back to so I’ll take it.” “It has been such a tough time and to be out the other side, it is just so exciting to produce a complete pop album. The crafting of pop music can be so fun and the challenge to sing those songs is something I’ve relished.” Will will be bringing his ‘Light It Up Live’ tour to Scarborough Spa on Saturday 12th October 2024. Tickets on sale Friday 26th April 2024 at 10am RIGHT HERE!

Legendary Rock Band FEEDER To Play Scarborough Spa Grand Hall This Summer!

by Patrick Billington • 18 Apr, 2024

Since they started releasing records more than thirty years ago, Feeder have never been far from the charts or strangers to the stage. Having sold over 7 million records, they’ve played all over the world, bringing their anthemic rock music to fans old and new, always exhilarating, always celebratory. Tracks like Just The Way I’m Feeling, Buck Rogers, Feeling A Moment, High, Borders, Just a Day, Torpedo and Fear of Flying and Lost and Found are just some of the 26 top 40 chart hits the band have enjoyed over the years along with a double platinum singles collection in 2006. In 2010 the band spent a year getting back to their roots and playing new tracks in clubs under the name Renegades. An album of the same name was then released followed by their eighth studio album, ‘Generation Freakshow’. This album garnered glowing reviews in The Times and The Evening Standard. After a four-year break to pursue solo projects, 2016 saw Feeder release All bright Electric and in 2017 the “Best Of” album which both marked up more Top 10 albums for the band. This was followed by Tallulah and most recently Torpedo, both Top 5 albums. 2024 sees the band ready to reclaim their position as one of the biggest and best British rock bands. Join them as they head to Scarborough Spa on Friday 26th July 2024, tickets on sale this Friday RIGHT HERE!
