The Quireboys' frontman Spike is set to play a full-band show in Hexham for the first time.

The rock and roll singer, who has played with the Rolling Stones and Aerosmith, will perform at the Queen's Hall with his band on September 24.

Tickets for The Quireboys’ show at Hexham’s Queen’s Hall are available at queenshall.co.uk.

Spike, who spent his teenage years in Corbridge, said: "It’s my mam’s birthday that week and we’re planning one hell of a party.

"She’s been all over the world watching me and the lads but it’s nice to bring the show to her."

The Quireboys' performance will be an acoustic show to celebrate the launch of their new album Wardour Street.

Spike said: "It’s a theatre-style performance with two sets split by an interval.

"We’re going to playing Quireboys songs from the first album and bringing things bang up to date with the new songs."

He will be joined on stage by Hairy Biker Si King, Squeeze drummer Simon Hanson, and Jim Creagan (Rod Stewart, Steve Harley).

Thunder duo Luke Morley (now a member of The Quireboys) and Harry James will also perform, along with former Shark Island rocker Chris Heilman.

County Durham singer-songwriter Pete Shoulder is set to make a cameo appearance, and violinist Cerys Jones will add to the evening's rootsy feel.

Spike said: "We wanted to do something special in the North East to build up to the album release.

"I moved to Corbridge when I was 13 and I’ve always wanted to play a bigger show in Hexham.

"It’s the right place at the right time.

"The focus for the Quireboys show will be on the hits from the early days and a few new songs from Wardour Street.

"I’m really proud of that record.

"Next year’s the 35th anniversary of our debut A Bit Of What You Fancy and so we’ll be celebrating those songs and Wardour Street throughout 2025.

"In the meantime, this is a chance to enjoy a stripped back version of the band and see some amazing musicians up close and personal."
