Roger Daltrey will perform in south Essex next year as part of his newly announced UK tour.

The frontman of The Who is embarking on a solo tour in 2025, featuring classic songs, solo hits, and Q&A sessions.

The tour will see Daltrey take the stage at the Cliffs Pavilion in Westcliff on Wednesday, April 23.

The shows will be a mix of acoustic and semi-acoustic renditions of classic tracks from The Who, as well as songs from Daltrey's 50-year solo career.

He will be joined on stage by a nine-piece band including Simon Townshend, Pete Townshend's brother and regular collaborator.

Daltrey said: "Here we go again.

"After touring the US with this band of phenomenal musicians, I can't wait to get back on the road in the UK with these shows.

"It's a joy to be on stage performing - up close and personal for the audience, chatting with them and playing familiar songs in an unfamiliar way."

Fans will get the chance to put their questions to Daltrey as part of the Q&A sessions.

The tour will kick off in Brighton on April 20 and wrap up in Manchester on May 4.

Tickets for the tour will go on sale on Friday (November 15) at 10am via trafalgartickets.com.
