The extensive new tour will visit 20 venues across the country. With songs from Tom Waits to Tom Jones, and Guys and Dolls to Elvis - and almost everything in between - audiences can expect Rob’s usual warmth and humour as well as some of his famed gallery of voices.

Rob said: “I’m so excited to get back on stage with this show. Touring with this incredible band of musicians is such a delight. I’m looking forward to getting around the country next year and bring some much-needed music and laughter."

Rob Brydon: ‘I hope this show is a very pleasant surprise for audiences’

Rob is aware that some people might be taken aback by what they might perceive as a change of tack with Songs & Stories.

He said of his new show: “It will take some people by surprise. There are so many media outlets nowadays that some people might only know me from Gavin and Stacey or Would I Lie To You?. Those people often say to me, ‘I didn’t know you could sing’, and yet I have sung a lot. I hope this show is a very pleasant surprise for audiences.”

Rob Brydon’s varied career began with the TV comedy shows Marion and Geoff and Human Remains in 2000, for which he won British Comedy Awards. Since then, he has enjoyed huge success with the likes of Gavin & Stacey, Black Books, Little Britain, Would I Lie To You and many more.

He has also appeared in various dramas such as Oliver Twist, Heroes and Villains: Napoleon, The Way We Live Now, Murder In Mind and Marple and the films 24 Hour Party People, MirrorMask, A Cock and Bull Story and Swimming with Men.

In 2009 alongside Ruth Jones, Robin Gibb and Sir Tom Jones, Rob reached number one in the UK charts with the single Islands in The Stream, in aid of Comic Relief. He also embarked on an 87 date tour of the UK with his stand up show, Rob Brydon Live which included a three week run in London’s West End.
