He will now be playing at Sheffield City Hall on November 26, 2021. Tickets bought for the original date, December 3, 2020, remain valid.

Jools said: “Since the age of seventeen, I have spent my entire life performing on tour. Therefore, it is with sadness and disappointment that myself, my orchestra and our special guests have been forced to postpone our autumn and winter shows.

"I apologise to everyone who was looking forward to seeing us, and I speak for my whole orchestra and crew, when I say we are all longing to return to the boogie playing field next year.”

Tickets for Jools Holland and his Rhythm and Blues Orchestra concert cost from £35.70. Go to www.sheffieldcityhall.co.uk
