Congratulations to winners, Clare Burke (Scotland) and Amanda Parkin (North Humberside).

Much loved international singing star, the one and only JACK JONES, is returning to the UK.

Back for a short tour in February 2016 it will be Jack's first visit to the UK since 2013 and it promises to be a rare treat. Complete with a big band he celebrates one of the greatest singers of all time - Frank Sinatra.

The dates coincide with the release of Jack's new album 'Seriously Frank' celebrating 100 years of Sinatra. With 13 tracks, a 22 piece orchestra and piano from Dave Grusin, 'Seriously Frank' combines some classic numbers with lesser known songs, all arranged and conducted by Patrick Williams.

Rated by Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett as numero uno, Jack Jones is something of a benchmark. He has 60 albums to his credit, two Grammies and another five nominations, an Emmy, and awards too numerous to mention. He has performed at two Royal Variety Shows and has his own Hollywood Walk of Fame star right next to his father's, the film star Allan Jones.

Jack's respect for a well crafted song has led to him recording some of the greatest ballads of all time but his career has spanned it all - pop, jazz, musical theatre, film. He is, as Mel Torme put it, 'the greatest pure singer in the world.'

On fine form at 77, this is a man who has sung his whole life through. One of the very few original greats left standing.

Consistently playing to packed houses world-wide, not to mention stellar venues such as Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Centre and the White House, Jack Jones is an artist who truly knows how to entertain. This is one tour that promises to be superlative on every level.

Shows start at 7.30pm and tickets are on sale now from all usual venues priced £29.50 each. @singerjackjones
