An award-winning Adele tribute act is heading to the stage in Taunton as part of a UK tour.

Starring Natalie Black, Hometown Glory will arrive at The Brewhouse theatre on Friday, November 1, promising an evening of live vocals, replica costumes, and chart-topping hits.

Ms Black has performed as Adele around the world for 12 years and has twice won 'Best Adele Tribute' at the National Tribute Awards.

She said: "Adele has been a favourite of mine right from the start, and I just love singing her songs, which are soulful, and so relatable of course.

"My show takes fans right through her back catalogue of tunes – from the classics like Set Fire to the Rain, Someone Like You, Make You Feel My Love and Skyfall, to the more recent releases I Drink Wine and Easy on Me.

"She is very elegant, so I try to replicate many of her wonderful stage costumes, for a truly authentic recreation of a live Adele concert experience.

"I love her sense of humour too – as a singer, there's nothing better than a good rapport with your audience."

Ms Black has also featured in the 2020 film Greed alongside Steve Coogan and sang on LadBaby's Christmas charity single, which topped the charts in 2022.

She believes tribute acts play an important role in keeping music accessible to fans.

The full list of dates on Ms Black's tour can be found at adele-tribute.net.

Ms Black said: "People seem to love tribute artists and I am not surprised.

"Tribute acts play a big part in keeping music alive – sometimes because the original artist can no longer perform or because fans can't get tickets to see their favourite artist or band.

"I know all about this, as I couldn't get tickets to see Adele when I was in Vegas.

"Good tribute acts provide the next best thing, and I am proud to be part of this world."

The show is suitable for all ages and promises an "unforgettable evening out."
