TICKETS have gone on sale for a summer night of boogie woogie music at Eastnor Castle as Jools Holland returns to the Deer Park on Saturday, July 26 with his outstanding Rhythm & Blues Orchestra.

It's been four years since his last appearance at Eastnor and the host of the hugely popular Later…With Jools” will be on stage with his 18-piece band, special guests Melanie C, Marc Almond and Ruby Turner, and a grand firework finale.

The Rhythm & Blues Orchestra has evolved from the seeds sown in 1987 when Jools and his drummer Gilson Lavis began touring as a duo known as ‘The Jools Holland Big Band’, and is now a disciplined 18-piece band capable of selling out all over Britain and Europe – from Canterbury Cathedral and Kew Gardens to the Glastonbury Festival – and filling the Albert Hall each Christmas in what has become an annual ritual.

Director of KAL Music, Keith Louch, said “Jools is 100 per cent energy and entertainment, always delivers a top show and I know that he will get everyone on their feet. Whenever we have previously presented him at this scenic location the fun starts when the gates open there's always a wonderful party atmosphere.

With gates opening at 5pm there is ample opportunity to enjoy the setting, so picnics are encouraged. The music starts at 7pm and will end with a fantastic firework finale at around 10.30pm.

Tickets are now on sale via the KAL website at kalmusic.co.uk
