Hello Sailor is thrilled to be performing at Villa Maria as support act for the legendary Tom Jones.

The band these days features a six-piece line-up that includes Hello Sailor’s three founding members, Graham Brazier, Dave McArtney and Harry Lyon, with long-time drummer Rick Ball, bass player Paul Woolright and Stuart Pearce on piano.

Harry Lyon says, “We love the Sailor gigs because we only play when we want to and it makes it special. We’re all such firm friends, so when we get together it’s just a great time and I think the gigs reflect that. I know we’re all really looking forward to supporting Tom Jones at a venue we know our audience will enjoy.”

The band has been in Roundhead Studios recently recording tracks for an album planned for release next year. 2010 will be the band’s 35th anniversary and they want to celebrate with the release of some new material and some select shows.
