MARY Black will embark on her last ever UK tour with a performance at St David’s Hall on May 15 2015. The much loved Irish singer has decided to hang up her “touring boots”.

In a New Year’s message on her website Mary said “Music has been so good to me, I've loved touring the world for the last 30 years….I have made so many friends and have countless fond memories from different corners of the globe. So to my fans everywhere I'd like to thank you and let you know that I hope to get back again to all my favourite places for one last tour - 'The Last Call'.”

For over a quarter-century, Mary Black has been a dominant presence in Irish music, both at home and abroad. Mary has released 11 studio albums all of which achieved platinum sales status and spawned countless hits. Her enduring success has proven that her depth of talent and her love of singing transcend the generations, as well as national and musical boundaries too. She is indeed a real Irish treasure and her talent a gift from this small island to a grateful world.
