'One Step At A Time' Solo Tour

Lead vocalist and guitarist of Status Quo, Francis Rossi OBE, is undertaking his first solo tour in May 2010. Now in his 60s, the iconic rockstar has shed his trademark ponytail, though his presence and keen musicianship remain. With a staggering repertoire of 20 years worth of solo material plus a host of Quo hits, this is an unmissable performance for any dedicated fan.

His debut album One Step At A Time will be released by Earmusic and Francis will be accompanied on this tour by an eight piece band.

Francis commented: "I never stop writing songs and melodies but there have been many tracks over the years that just weren't right for Quo. These songs have been gathering dust in my mind for too long and now seems the right time to showcase them. It's a big step for me but I hope to see lots of the same faces out there on the road!"

Plus special guests The North.
