KT Tunstall to Return to Parr Hall to Showcase New Album

Brit Award-winning singer KT Tunstall is returning to Parr Hall as part of a 2017 tour to showcase her new album KIN.

The Warrington show, on 26 May, is one of eight new dates announced today alongside news that her new single It Took Me So Long to Get Here, But Here I Am will be released on 6 January.

Brit Award and Ivor Novello Award-winning KT was recently honoured further with the Inspirational Artist gong at the Women in Music Awards.

It Took Me So Long to Get Here, But Here I Am is the third single taken from the full-bodied and full-blooded album KIN which was released earlier this year to rave reviews.

It debuted at No. 7 on the official UK Album Chart and follows previous critically-acclaimed albums Eye To The Telescope, Drastic Fantastic, Tiger Suit and Invisible Empire // Crescent Moon.

KT has a busy few months ahead as she will be a special guest in the Jamie Cullum & Friends Jazz Café show, which raises money for Help Refugees, in London on 4 December, and lending her vocal talents to a charity single in memory of MP Jo Cox.

Early 2017 will see KT supporting Simple Minds across Europe before heading out on her own headline tour which includes a show at Warrington's Parr Hall on 26 May.

Tickets go on sale at 10am on Friday 25 November.

Pyramid & Parr Hall are two of the North West's leading arts and entertainment venues for music, comedy, dance, drama and much more. The venues have played host to big name acts including John Bishop, The Stone Roses, Billy Ocean, Jools Holland and Peter Kay to name a few.

Parr Hall is a listed building and has been a long standing feature of Warrington's cultural scene since its opening in 1895. It is a medium sized concert venue with 1000 seats. Pyramid opened in 2002, with support from Arts Council England and the National Lottery, as an arts centre focusing on smaller performances and community events. It offers a range of spaces to hire for events, weddings and conferences.

The venues are run by Culture Warrington which is a charitable trust that was established in May 2012 to also manage Warrington Museum & Art Gallery and cultural events across the town including Warrington Festival and Warrington Contemporary Arts Festival.
