Tom Jones to play St Anne's Park show with Nile Rodgers & CHIC next summer

Tom Jones and Nile Rodgers & CHIC will play a joint show in Dublin’s St Anne’s Park on Sunday 9 June 2024.

With a career spanning across six decades, Jones is widely considered to be amongst the most prolific recording artists of all time, selling over 100 million records.

Now 83-years-old, the legendary Welsh singer has been receiving acclaim for his newer Ethan Johns-produced albums, including Surrounded By Time, Long Lost Suitcase, Spirit In The Room and Prise & Blame.

Starting his career gigging in local clubs and pubs in South Wales, Jones signed to Decca Records in London in the early 1960s, leading to a string of hits including ‘It’s Not Unusual’ and ‘What’s New PussyCat?’

He has since worked with a plethora of beloved artists, ranging from Stevie Wonder and Aretha Franklin to Van Morrison, Dolly Parton and Ed Sheeran.
