Roger Daltrey has confirmed a set of solo UK shows for the autumn.
The Who frontman will take his Who Was I? Tour to Birmingham, Manchester, Nottingham, London, Brighton, Southend, Oxford, Glasgow, Newcastle, Liverpool, and Portsmouth between November 7 and December 2, with tickets on general sale at 9am on September 10.
Each evening will feature a mix of music and conversation based around Daltrey's musical journey, with the 77-year-old set to perform tracks from across his nine solo LPs, along with material from his 2014 record with Wilko Johnson. There will also be rarities as well as reinterpretations of classic Who songs. He said:
"The truth is singers need to sing, use it or lose it. Throughout my life I have sung with so many great musicians, from the heavy rock of The Who and Wilko Jonson, to the Irish lilt of The Chieftains. On this tour I want to take the audience on a musical journey through my career as a singer, with a show of songs and sounds that explores and surprises. I look forward to having closer contact with my audience than festivals and arenas allow. Leaving time to chat.
"It's important to get our road crew working again, without these guys the halls would go silent. It's also clear that live music is an important part of all our lives, something to free us from the groundhog days that life has become. This pandemic has brought home to me what an important part of me singing is and it's made me determined to get back onstage asap. See you soon!"
