ACCLAIMED singer-songwriter Tom Odell delighted fans with a sensational show at The Piece Hall last night.
The BRIT Award winner - who has six Top 10 albums under his belt - entertained a jubilant crowd at the historic Halifax courtyard, as the latest headliner in the TK Maxx presents Live at The Piece Hall summer series.
Describing it as "one of the most beautiful places", Tom told the audience: “Any time you want us to come back, just say the word!”
Fans enjoyed hits including Can’t Pretend, Grow Old With Me and I Know, before Tom closed the set with a powerful sing-along to Fighting Fire With Fire, ahead of a six-track encore featuring his cover of Cyndi Lauper’s True Colours and his debut single Another Love.
Tom was supported by his good friend, Northern star Rae Morris who opened the show, then returned to the stage to duet on Half As Good As You.
Tom's show ended a glorious weekend at the Piece Hall. On Friday, electronic music legends Underworld brought a storming two-set show to the venue.
The beloved electro innovators - mega S T A Rs of the techno scene - played two spectacular sets, as fans bounced in the courtyard.
As the final strains of their timeless dance anthem Born Slippy (Nuxx) faded over the venue, Karl Hyde told the crowd: “Halifax, you were beautiful!”, with Rick Smith stepping out to join him in the crowd’s adulation.
* The series continues next Sunday, July 7 with Rick Astley and Lightning Seeds.
