Sam Bailey announces new concert dates

X Factor winner to perform special Kent & Hertfordshire concerts

Sam Bailey has announced she will perform two special, ‘up-close-and-personal’, concerts next winter, ahead of her first headline tour.

The X Factor winner, currently at #1 in the UK Album Chart singer with The Power of Love, stole the hearts of a nation in the most recent series of the popular TV show with her soaring spine-tingling vocals and now counts Gary Barlow amongst her biggest fans.

Immediately after winning the show, Sam went straight to #1 in the UK’s Christmas Singles Chart, with a cover of Demi Lovato’s Skyscraper, ahead of her debut album release which went straight to #1 last week and features the singles Skyscraper, her duet with Nicole Scherzinger And I Am Telling You, and her next single due for release, Compass, written for her by Grammy Award winning songwriter Diane Warren

The former Prison Officer has performed since she was 15 years old, but acknowledged real-life ‘“put everything on hold”’ until her astounding X Factor audition stunned judges Nicole Scherzinger, Sharon Osbourne, Gary Barlow and Louis Walsh.

Set to tour the UK with her debut show in winter 2015, Sam will perform two special ‘secret’ pre-tour concerts at the Margate Winter Gardens and the Watford Colosseum on Monday 26 & Tuesday 27 January, 2015, respectively

Tickets will be on sale from 8am, Friday, 4 April from www.gigantic.com and the individual venues’ Box Offices; www.margatewintergardens.co.uk / 01843 292795 and www.watfordcolosseum.co.uk / 08450 753993
