Info
On 10 July 2026, The Piece Hall in Halifax hosts Billy Ocean, the Trinidadian‑British singer whose warm, supple voice moves between R&B, soul and pop with Caribbean shades. From his breakthrough Love Really Hurts Without You and Red Light Spells Danger to the mid‑80s run shaped by Caribbean Queen (No More Love on the Run) and the albums Suddenly, Love Zone and Tear Down These Walls, his catalogue blends crafted refrains and fluid grooves. Still active on stage and on record, with releases up to One World in 2020, he draws on decades of songwriting for a live set built on melody, rhythm and straight‑to‑the‑point emotion.
Also on the bill, Marti Pellow, first known as the voice of Wet Wet Wet. Since the early 2000s he has followed a solo path through soul colours, jazz inflections and pop ballads, with records like Smile, Moonlight Over Memphis, Sentimental Me and Stargazer. In parallel, his roles in musicals in the West End and on Broadway – Chicago, Chess, Jekyll & Hyde, Evita – have honed a clear sense of phrasing and storytelling that carries into his concerts.
