Tom Jones brought his brand-new tour to a sold-out crowd at The Piece Hall.
Kicking off his 90-minute set with 2021’s I’m Growing Old, he performed a string of crowd favourites including his first ever number one hit from 1965 It’s Not Unusual, What’s Up Pussycat, Sex Bomb and You Can Leave Your Hat On.
The 1968 international sensation Delilah brought a chorus of voices as the singalong of the night, with the main set ending on a cover of Prince’s Kiss.
Tom returned to the stage for a four-song encore of Green Green Grass of Home, Strange Things and covers of Chuck Berry’s Johnny B Goode and Jerry Lee Lewis’ Great Balls of Fire.
British soul favourites Stone Foundation, playing for their fifth time at The Piece Hall, had opened the celebrations.
Live At The Piece Hall continues tonight with Tom Grennan before Gary Newman performs on Friday night.
There are also many more acts still to perform before the end of August.
