2025 has already proven to be a memorable year for Chesney Hawkes. His recent album ‘Living Arrows’ received a wave of acclaim including being named as Radio 2’s Album of the Week as it saw him fire back into Top 10 on numerous Official Charts (including Album Sales, Album Downloads, Physical Albums, Vinyl Albums and Independent Albums). He also returned to arenas with a major European tour as guest to James Blunt, and enjoyed a high profile TV moment as a finalist on ‘Celebrity Big Brother’.
Now Chesney looks ahead to 2026 with news of his ‘Smash It To Pieces’ UK headline tour, which includes a London show at Islington Assembly Hall. The name of the tour is taken from the opening lyrics to his single ‘Live Forever’ and in memory of his best friend Vic and final words to Chesney.
Chesney Hawkes’ recent shows have been a celebratory experience. Armed with star charisma and a band featuring his brother Jodie (drums) and his son Indiana (guitar), Chesney has delivered crowd-pleasing sets packed with mega hits and old favourites such as ‘The One and Only’ and ‘I’m A Man Not A Boy’, highlights from ‘Living Arrows’, and some fun covers. Now playing bigger venues and more shows – expect those good vibes to continue with some fresh surprises when the‘Smash It To Pieces’ tour hits the road in March 2026.
