About this event

---

Colin Blunstone, lead singer of The Zombies and acclaimed Solo Artist, returns to UK stages with the"Believe In Miracles" Tour, his first national solo outing in 7 years. The tour title is a nod to Blunstone's 1972 hit "I Don't Believe In Miracles" (penned by Argent singer/guitarist Russ Ballard), but is also a reflection on his remarkable 7-decade career. Blunstone relates,"I joined The Zombies as a teen thinking it would be a two or three year adventure. Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined it would lead to a lifetime in music.and that at the tender age of 80, I'd be the subject of a documentary, recording a new album and embarking on a major tour!". His career-spanning show will feature classics from The Zombies, favourites from his solo releases and collaborations, and debut new material from his forthcoming studio album. A chance reunion with Rod Argent in 1999 brought about a 25-year resurgence for The Zombies, prolifically touring the world and releasing new material. In the midst, Blunstone still managed to record three solo releases -The Ghost Of You And Me in 2009, On The Air Tonight in 2012 and most recently, the EP Less is More in early 2024, a set of 5 sparsely-recorded demos showcasing those velvety vocals accompanied only by acoustic guitar.  With Argent's retirement for health reasons in 2024, Blunstone is refocusing on his solo career while also continuing to celebrate the legacy of The Zombies. A new album is planned for release in 2026.
