Aled Jones is hitting the road for a major UK tour and coming to King’s Hall, Ilkley on Thursday 7 November with his one-man show Full Circle.
Audiences will get the chance to hear Aled Jones as they’ve never heard him before, he says:
“It’s time to come Full Circle. I’m really excited about this tour. I’ll be telling stories about how it all began, then taking the audience on a journey through my career. There’ll be songs, there’ll be stories, and there’ll be one or two surprises. There’ll also be a book – it’s going to be a very busy 2024 and I can’t wait to get on the road and visit interesting places I’ve never visited before and of course see my wonderful fans.
There have been some incredible moments – meeting Royalty, playing concert halls all over the world, singing at Bob Geldof and Paula Yates’s wedding – and, of course, recording Walking In The Air, right through to Songs Of Praise and Classic FM.
The show will be stories and songs from across my career. I’ll be singing some of my favourites, telling some of my stories, and showing previously-unseen photographs. Who knows, the audience might even get to ask a few questions.”
Aled Jones was the boy treble who captivated the world with his angelic voice. Selling over seven million albums, he was the original, classical crossover star. His recording of Walking in the Air, from the animated film The Snowman, firmly established him as a household name and he has become an integral part of the nation's festivities.
Equally at home on the classical stage or starring in musical theatre productions in London West End, his credits include lead roles in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and Irving Berlin’s White Christmas.
As a singer, Aled is in demand globally and has performed in the world's most iconic venues, from London’s Royal Albert Hall to the Sydney Opera House.
An award-winning television broadcaster and radio presenter who’s interviewed hundreds of A-List stars over the years, Aled Jones heads up BBC’s Songs of Praise and his own Saturday and Sunday morning shows on Classic FM.
Now after 40 years in the business, he’s looking back on a remarkable career with a one-man show, that will feature never-before-heard music, tales from the decades and for the first time, his story told in his own words.
The events on Thursday 7 November 2024 starts at 7.30pm, tickets £32.75, Boxes (seat 4): £131, call the Box Office on 01274 432000 or visit bradford-theatres.co.uk
