Engelbert Humperdinck will finish his Australian tour just weeks before Ron Sexsmith flies into the country to start his tour.
Engelbert Humperdinck and Ron Sexsmith perform together on Engelbert’s ‘Engelbert Calling’ album and despite both keeping up relentless touring schedules, the dates never seem to coincide giving the pair the opportunity to sing the song ‘Something To Hold On To’ live.
“It would have been great. I really like this work. I think he is great,” Engelbert told Noise11.com.
Ron Sexsmith wrote the Christmas song ‘Something To Hold On To’ in 2008 and re-recorded it with Engelbert for the ‘Engelbert Calling’ album in 2014.
Engelbert hasn’t had a chance to perform any of the songs live with his guest artists yet. “They are always doing their own thing but I do get to sing the Elton song with his voice and I do the Willie Nelson one as well. Apart from that none have been on tour with me because they are always doing their own thing,” he said.
Engelbert Humperdinck will tour Australia in October and November for Bluehawk Presents.
