Rock 'n' Roll icons: Roy Orbison and Buddy Holly
Harry Fletcher26 March 2019

A Roy Orbison and Buddy Holly hologram tour is coming to the UK later this year.

The Rock ’N’ Roll Dream Tour will see the legendary performers brought to life onstage together for the first time.

The run of 14 UK and Ireland dates will begin with a show at Dublin’s 3 Arena on October 7, before ending with a show at London’s Hammersmith Apollo on October 24.

The shows will feature projections of the musicians, complete with a live band and backing singers.

Orbison is frequently cited as one of the most influential musicians of his generation, with hits such as Oh, Pretty Woman, You Got It, Only The Lonely, Crying and I Drove All Night.

Holly is another rock ‘n’ roll pioneer, who found success with The Crickets in the mid 50s, achieving the number one hit That’ll Be The Day before finding success with Peggy Sue and Not Fade Away.

The news comes after the sell-out Orbison hologram tour of the UK in 2018.
