Sharleen Spiteri’s debut solo album ‘Melody’, which went straight into the UK album charts at No 3, has propelled her back into the public consciousness with aplomb.

A number of high-profile performances followed, most notably her triumphant main stage slot at hometown festival T in the Park. She also starred at the recent BBC Proms in the Park, when she performed to over 30,000 people in London’s Hyde Park. Press plaudits include the NME who called Melody ‘a succulent record of Dusty Springfield-isms’.

The 2009 tour will see Sharleen perform tracks from Melody for the first time, along with a few Texas classics - all delivered by one of the best and most distinctive voices in British music.
