Blake "Combining the vocal grandeur of The Three Tenors with the infectious harmonies of The Bee Gees and the comedy of the Rat Pack, the exclusive new trio sound of BRIT-Award winners BLAKE is revealed in their exciting 2013 Live in Concert tour. Fresh back from major tours in Asia, America and Europe, the boys have got hilarious stories to tell and a host of new songs to share, including exclusive numbers from their brand new album Start Over. In a visual feast featuring spectacular video projections, the boys combine classical, pop, rock and musicals in a 2 hour show that amazes with its variety and class. Also joining the boys is the stunning classical soprano Natalie Coyle as their special support artist for this tour."
