What’s new pussycat? Oh, not much – just that esteemed music icon and living legend Sir Tom Jones is officially coming to Melbourne as part of his national Ages and Stages tour, that’s all.
Widely considered one of the greatest singers and recording artists of all time, with a remarkable career spanning more than six decades, Jones has announced he will be returning to perform in Australia for the first time since 2016.
His run of 2024 dates includes shows in Perth, Bowral (as part of Day on the Green, with special guest Delta Goodrem), Adelaide, Newcastle and Sydney. Jones will also headline Bluesfest in Byron Bay on March 30, 2024.
The Welsh crooner will grace Melbourne fans with his presence on March 28, 2024, with an exclusive one-off performance at Margaret Court Arena. If his UK shows are anything to go by, you can expect to hear classic bangers like 'It's Not Unusual', 'Delilah', 'What's New Pussycat?' and 'She's A Lady'. And if you ask us, we're hoping to hear 'Burning Down The House'.
Jones is one of the few artists whose profession began at the dawn of modern pop music, yet still continues to have a thriving recording and performing career. He has been awarded numerous accolades and honours, including multiple Brit Awards, a Silver Clef Award and a Hitmaker Award from the US Songwriters Hall of Fame. In 2006, Jones was also knighted by Queen Elizabeth II.
