International singing legend Jack Jones is to make an appearance at The Apex, in Bury St Edmunds, in January, to mark his 80th birthday.
He is returning to the UK for a handful of dates complete with big band and his show promises some of the greatest songs of all time.
Rated by Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett as Numero Uno, it was the former who actually inspired Jack to sing. Jack’s school friend, Nancy, brought her father in one day to sing at assembly ... from then on it was sports’ loss and entertainment’s gain.
Jack Jones has sung all his life. He has 60 albums to his credit, two Grammies and another five nominations, an Emmy, and awards too numerous to mention. He has performed at two Royal Variety Shows and has his own Hollywood Walk of Fame star right next to his father’s, the film star Allan Jones.
He is due at the Apex on Friday, January 26, with the show starting at 7.30pm.
