Strictly Wakeman

In July, Rick's STRICTLY WAKEMAN tour will present a new show unlike any of his previous appearances. For the first time ever, Rick will be joining forces with a female singer - Hayley Sanderson, well-known for her work as one of the leading vocalists on the UK's Strictly Come Dancing TV show - to present a series of concerts featuring music specially adapted for piano and vocals.

Rick and Hayley have been working together for several years. He accompanied her on her 2009 album, Just Songs, and impressed by her vocal versatility and clarity, subsequently invited her to sing lead vocals on a number of his shows for band (and sometimes, orchestra) in the UK and South America, at prestigious venues like the Royal Albert Hall, the Royal Festival Hall and the O2 Arena. Her awesome vocals also feature on the definitive Live At The London Palladium box set, recorded when Rick led his band through The Six Wives Of Henry VIII, The Myths And Legends Of King Arthur And The Knights Of The Round Table, Journey To The Centre Of The Earth and a set of YES classics, over two magical nights in 2023, and on his studio album, A Gallery Of The Imagination. Rick was also the person to give her the affectionate nickname 'Strictly'!

Don't miss this exciting opportunity to witness Rick's latest creative explorations in the company of Hayley Sanderson!
