Charlie Landsborough's tour stops off in Weston
From the Weston (UK) Mercury
Popular singer Charlie Landsborough heads out on the road again this month for a nationwide tour, which takes in Weston.
The 61-year-old from Birkenhead played in the same Liverpool pub for 13 years - for £1 a night - and found fame late in life having already spent time in the army, as a driver, store manager, engineer and, for 15 years, a school teacher.
His first hit came in 1995 when "What Colour Is The Wind" went straight to the top of the Irish charts.
Since then sell-out tours of the UK, Australia and New Zealand have been interspersed with more sell-out shows at the prestigious Grand Ole Opry in Nashville.
