Tom Jones and Van Morrison will team up to headline BluesFest at The O2 in November.

The two icons will both play headline solo sets in Greenwich on November 8 with the prospect of a few duets along the way too.

Tom Jones and Van Morrison have been friends since the mid-60s and have joined forces on record a few times but have never performed together publicly.

Other performers at BluesFest from November 6 to 8 include Grammy-winning blues rockers Tedeschi Trucks Band, Jo Harman, Dave Matthews Band and Matt Schofield.

Festival Director Leo Green:

"We’re delighted to be welcoming Van Morrison and Tom Jones back to the festival for their double header at The O2 Arena on Nov 8 - both playing full sets with their bands and hopefully a few duets together too.

“ With Dave Matthews Band, Tedeschi Trucks Band, Jo Harman and Matt Schofield also on the bill, this year’s event is shaping up to be our strongest to date.”
