JAY and Merrill Osmond have announced a second date in Barnoldswick giving fans the chance to get up close and personal with their musical heroes.

With just 50 tickets available for the performance next month, the show at Barnoldswick Music and Arts Centre has to be one of the most intimate performances the brothers have given in a career spanning more than 50 years.

An initial date on July 9 sold out within hours of being announced leading to a second show the following night being arranged.

The Osmonds have sold over 100 million albums worldwide and between them members of the family have released around 200 albums.

Jay and Merrill along with brothers Wayne and Alan recorded their first record album in 1963. They were later joined by brothers Donny and Jimmy and sister Marie as Osmond mania swept the country in the early Seventies.

Donny and Marie went on to have stellar solo careers and now perform in Las Vegas.

Alan and Wayne have now retired from touring, but Merrill and Jay continue to perform together.

They play Barnoldswick on Tuesday, July 10. For details contact 01282 813374 or 07712 628366 or visit www.barnoldswickmusicandartscentre.com
