THE lead singer of a legendary band is coming to Glasgow on a special solo tour.
Roger Daltrey of The Who will hit the road in 2025 for a tour packed with classic hits, solo songs and his famous Q&A sessions.
He will visit Glasgow's SEC Armadillo on Monday, April 28, 2025.
He will be joined by his nine-piece band which consists of regular The Who collaborator Simon Townshend, John Hogg, Doug Boyle, Steve Weston, Jody Linscott, Billy Nicholls, Katie Jacoby, Geraint Watkins and Scott Devours.
The singer said: "Here we go again! After touring the US with this band of phenomenal musicians, I can’t wait to get back on the road in the UK with these shows.
"It’s a joy to be on stage performing – up close and personal for the audience, chatting with them and playing familiar songs in an unfamiliar way.”
Daltrey is known for taking a pro-Brexit stance, having been one of its most prominent and vocal supporters in the lead up to the 2016 referendum.
However, he also said he had been left feeling “very disappointed” with the lack of progress he felt the UK had made after leaving the European Union.

He previously told The Independent: “I’m disappointed we haven’t made the most of it – I’m really disappointed that we haven’t burned an awful lot of useless regulation.”
He also complained about the difficulties facing musicians who wish to tour around Europe with artists among the hardest hit, reporting higher costs and increased bureaucracy in order to play gigs.
With The Who, he achieved success with timeless classics such as Who Are You, Won't Get Fooled Again and Baba O'Riley.
Tickets go on sale on Friday, November 15 at 10am.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
