As well as Jools' famed boogie-woogie piano virtuosity, the tour features performances from soul sirens Ruby Turner and Louise Marshall and former Soft Cell-man turned torch singer Marc Almond, who replaces Lulu for one night only.

Jools made his name as the keyboard player in south London pub rockers Squeeze and has since become as well known for his TV presenting work, including the highly acclaimed Later...

The tour touches down in Portsmouth on November 24th.

Address: Portsmouth Guildhall, 16 Guildhall Walk, Portsmouth, Po1 2DD.

Other events taking place at the Portsmouth Guildhall in November include live shows from Foreigner and hotly tipped indie favourites The Pigeon Detectives.
