LEGENDARY singer Tony Christie is set to bring his Great Farewell Tour to Somerset in October.
The star, who has been featuring in the charts for more than six decades, will perform at the Cheese & Grain, in Frome, on October 9.
Known for hits including Is This The Way to Amarillo? and Avenues & Alleyways, the star is on the road for farewell shows after revealing he is living with dementia.
“Tony will be performing a select handful of shows along with his band in 2025 in commemoration of his triumphant 60-year career,” a spokesperson said.
“With no sign of faltering, Tony is living proof that age is just a number and there’s beauty in experience.”
Tony recently featured on ITV’s Loose Women talking about living with dementia, where he said his onstage performances have not been affected, giving Tony the chance “to continue the journey he loves”.
“A journey from the streets of Sheffield through to one of the most iconic stages in the world, the famed Pyramid Stage (Via Amarillo of course!),” the spokesperson went on.
