Russell Watson - Russell Watson Announces Uk Tour After Tumour Recovery

Opera star Russell Watson has announced a UK tour after recovering from his second brain tumour.

Watson, 41, will tour 13 venues across the country in June and July, including a homecoming concert in Manchester.

The singer, known as 'The Voice', underwent surgery and radiotherapy since a second brain tumour was detected in October last year.

There were fears Watson would never be able to perform again, as surgeons were forced to operate by going through the tenor's mouth.

The 29-day tour will start in Glasgow on June 9th, and end on July 7th, in Newcastle.

Watson also said he is working on a book, which is nearly finished, and hinted a new album would be announced soon.
