TOM Ball, the 25-year-old teacher who shot to fame with his stunning performances on Britain’s Got Talent, is heading to Basingstoke.

He has also released a new single ahead of the tour. The single, I (Who Have Nothing) - a hit for Shirley Bassey in 1963, and Tom Jones in 1970 - will be released on June 16, preceding the release of Tom’s debut album Curtain Call in November on the UK independent label, Westway Music.

In addition, Tom will be the special guest of the No.1 multi-platinum-selling group The Overtones on their biggest-ever UK tour this November and December.

Tom was described by BGT judge Amanda Holden as “one of the best singers the show had seen in 16 years”, and by fellow judge Simon Cowell as “simply sensational".

Tom's US stardom was cemented in the AGT All Stars Final with his unique version of Radiohead’s 'Creep'. Channelling his own personal battles with Type 1 Diabetes, Tom once again gained standing ovations and critical public acclaim.

He will be coming to The Anvil on November 17 alongside The Overtones, for tickets visit anvilarts.org.uk.
