Barry, who is celebrating ten years of tours in tribute to the ‘Big O’, said: “Orbison’s songs not only have wonderful melodies and tunes and the lyrics are some of the most sublime ever written.

“Not only does the music take you back in time, they can make you happy, sad and emotional all at the same time.

“Orbison is known as a balladeer, but he also recorded and performed rocky and contemporary songs. His songs are quite simply timeless.”

Orbison’s hits included Only the Lonely, Crying and Oh, Pretty Woman.

The show takes place on Friday January 20 at 7.30pm. Tickets cost £20.
