Let’s be honest: most support slots are an excuse to grab a drink at the bar. Not this one. If you’re heading to any of Rebecca Ferguson’s three June dates celebrating fifteen years of her extraordinary catalogue, do yourself a favour and get in early, because Reigns is not someone you want to miss.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Ferguson’s 15 Years: Stripped Back Tour is already a genuinely special prospect. The MBE-holder and one-time X Factor runner-up has quietly become one of Britain’s most beloved soul voices, and this series of intimate shows, stripped to piano and voice, featuring career-spanning hits alongside personal interpretations of songs she loves, sounds like an evening for the memory bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the support bill has caught more than a few people’s attention. Reigns is the kind of performer who makes you reconsider what a live music experience can feel like. Her music refuses to sit still: listen to her latest release ‘Everybody Falls Apart Sometimes’ which came out earlier this month, an aching piano ballad inspired by bereavement, and it is genuinely stunning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I make music to bring people together, whatever form it takes.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a pivotal year for Reigns. These three northern dates represent a serious step up in profile, and everything about her trajectory suggests she’ll rise to meet the moment. Whether the Glasshouse in Gateshead is ready for her is another question entirely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2nd June – Lytham St Annes – Lowther Pavilion
3rd June – Leeds – City Varieties
4th June – Gateshead – Glasshouse International Centre for Music<\/p>\n\n\n\n
