Few Tickets Remain for Marc Almond at Parr Hall

There are now less than 100 tickets left to see the legendary Marc Almond show at Parr Hall next month.

One of Britain's most gifted and unique vocal talents Marc Almond, best known for being one half of Soft Cell and a hugely successful solo career, announced a UK tour in March 2017 and chose the Warrington venue as one of just five to host a show.

He will be performing songs from both eras to coincide with the release of new album Hits and Pieces.

With shows in London, Perth, York, Buxton and Warrington, the tour is a celebration of Marc Almond's 60th birthday year and will feature a full band performing No. 1 singles Tainted Love, which spent a record 43 consecutive weeks in the US singles chart, Something's Gotten Hold Of My Heart recorded with Gene Pitney, plus many more of his biggest and best-loved hits and songs from the new album.

Described by The Observer as "a musician who has never stood still", Marc Almond found fame in the early 1980s as one half of the pioneering synth-pop duo Soft Cell, and has had a hugely successful, prolific and diverse solo career that has seen him sell more than 30 million records worldwide.

His back catalogue includes much-revered interpretations of Belgian singer-songwriter Jacques Brel songs as well as his own self-penned pieces.

Q Magazine recently referred to Marc Almond as "one of pop's greatest voices" and he has also collaborated with many other legendary figures in music including Tony Visconti, Jools Holland and Nico.

Most recently, Marc performed as part of the BBC Proms celebration of David Bowie's music.

Now, as he approaches his 60th birthday, these shows are an opportunity to celebrate the "hits and pieces" that have made up one of the most iconic careers in British popular music.
