Matt Goss has announced a UK and Ireland tour for spring 2023.
Hot on the heels of his appearance on BBC's Strictly Come Dancing, the vocalist and former frontman of Bros has confirmed performances alongside the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and the 15-piece MG Big Band between February 27 and April 16. Tickets go on general sale on December 9.
Each show will feature Goss performing his biggest hits and new music, along with his own personal tribute to legendary American songwriter Cole Porter. Goss said:
"Cole Porter is one of the greatest ever songwriters, his catalogue of work is incredible and timeless. To take these beautiful songs with fresh, stunning arrangements breathes a whole new life into every one of them, and it is my honour to be paying such a wonderful tribute to a great man. The fact that I am backed by the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra and the greatest big band in the country, makes this even more of a special occasion.
"Everyone will have a great time putting this stunning show together and I look forward to welcoming fans, young and young at heart, to all of the dates in our tour. Before the tour kicks off, we shall be recording the show album at the world-famous Abbey Road Studios, and this will be available for pre-order, ahead of its release in June 2023. I am so proud to be back on the road again here in my home country and look forward to meeting each and every one of my fans around the UK on this tour."
Alongside the news, the 54-year-old has released a new single, The Beautiful Unknown, which unfurls across multiple layers of instrumentation from the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, guided by the singer's impressive vocals. It serves as the title track of his latest solo album, which arrived back in March.
