Sir Tom Jones to Perform at Leicestershire County Cricket Club

Sir Tom Jones has today confirmed that he will be performing at the Uptonsteel County Ground, home of Leicestershire County Cricket Club, on Saturday 15th July 2023.

Arguably one of the greatest singers and recording artists of all time, the legendary Welsh performer continues to sustain his popularity around the world, captivating audiences with his timeless discography of hit songs, enduring talent and charisma.

With a remarkable career spanning over six decades, selling over 100 million records, now at the age of 82, he continues to receive some of the best reviews of his career for his most recent Ethan Johns-produced albums “Surrounded By Time”, "Long Lost Suitcase," "Spirit In The Room," and "Praise & Blame." With critics praising both the recorded material and Jones’ performances, his unique talent in both the studio and live on stage is undeniable.   

Jones’ career has been filled with numerous honours and accolades, including a deeply cherished knighthood from Queen Elizabeth II in 2006, multiple BRIT Awards, a Silver Clef Award, the prestigious Music Industry Trusts Award, and a Hitmaker Award from the US Songwriters Hall of Fame.

As an esteemed and influential figure in the music industry, Sir Tom remains an active, longstanding coach on ITV’s The Voice UK, as well as being a valued contributor at a variety of events and broadcasts such as the 25th Anniversary of MusiCares (honouring Bob Dylan) and the 57th Grammy Awards.

Having cemented his place in music history as one of the most successful artists of all time, traversing musical eras and genres, cutting across class divides, and appealing to all genders and ages, mainstream and cutting edge, Sir Tom continues to be a force to be reckoned with in the music world, and his legacy will undoubtedly live on for generations to come. 

Liz Doogan-Hobbs MBE, CEO of Grandslam Live Ltd, said: “We are delighted to confirm that we will be bringing Sir Tom Jones to Leicestershire County Cricket Club this summer. Sir Tom is a phenomenon, and we know fans will enjoy what promises to be one of the most enjoyable and memorable shows they’ll ever see!

Alongside a scintillating season of cricket, the Uptonsteel County Ground is shaping up as the place to be this summer.”
