Renowned Welsh singer Sir Tom Jones is set to grace the picturesque Market Rasen racecourse in Lincolnshire on the 16th of August for what promises to be a memorable performance. The 84-year-old music icon, known for his powerful vocals and timeless hits, is scheduled to headline one of the much-anticipated summer concerts at the venue.
Having previously enchanted the audience at Market Rasen in 2015, Sir Tom expressed his delight at the opportunity to make a comeback, stating, “I am really pleased to be returning to such a special place.” The veteran performer rose to fame in the swinging 60s with a string of chart-topping singles, including classics like “What’s New Pussycat,” “It’s Not Unusual,” and “Delilah.” His unmistakable voice also lent itself to the iconic theme song of the James Bond film “Thunderball.”
Despite a career spanning over six decades, Tom Jones continues to captivate audiences worldwide. The singer’s enduring appeal was further highlighted when he clinched a Brit Award in 2000 and charmed viewers as a judge on the popular TV talent show, The Voice.
Market Rasen Racecourse’s General Manager, Jack Pryor, expressed his enthusiasm, saying, “Tom Jones has long been overdue a return visit to Market Rasen Racecourse, and we’re ecstatic to be welcoming him back this August. When he headlined a decade ago, he drew record crowds, so we are eager for many of you to join us this summer.”
The anticipation for the acclaimed singer’s performance is palpable, with fans eagerly awaiting the chance to witness a music legend in action against the scenic backdrop of the rural racecourse. As Sir Tom Jones gears up to take the stage once more, the event is poised to be a highlight of the summer music calendar.
