Jools Holland and his Rhythm and Blues Orchestra

Musical maestro Jools Holland and his famous Rhythm & Blues Orchestra are thrilled to announce their 2025 Autumn/Winter tour of 30 sensational dates across the UK, joined this year by special guest Imelda May.

One of Ireland’s most celebrated artists, Imelda May has had many high-profile collaborations with Jeff Beck, and performed with music legends including Lou Reed, Bono, Tom Jones, Noel Gallagher, and Robert Plant. With a dynamic blend of blues, rock, soul, gospel, and jazz, Imelda’s self-written and produced album Love Tattoo remains the best-selling album by a homegrown female artist in Ireland. Her electric performances promise an unforgettable experience for audiences.

Jools expressed his enthusiasm saying: “from the moment I first heard and saw her, I realized that she is one of the true greats of music who understands old and new music. Her ravishing voice can illuminate both ballads and Boogie Woogie like no one else’ 

Fans will be thrilled to hear that the shows will once again feature the incredible ‘Queen of Boogie Woogie’ Ruby Turner, as well as the outstanding vocals of Louise Marshall, and Sumudu Jayatilaka. Together with the skillful musicianship of the Rhythm & Blues Orchestra, Jools Holland will be performing songs from throughout his career.
