Join us at Belfast's Ulster Hall as Francis Rossi takes to the stage on 16 April 2026!
Francis Rossi, legendary frontman of Status Quo, has enjoyed a remarkable 50+ year career as a guitarist, singer, and songwriter. From humble beginnings in South London and early musical experiments, he co-founded the band that evolved into Status Quo, achieving global success with hits like ‘Caroline’, ‘Down Down’, and ‘Pictures of Matchstick Men’.
Known for his iconic green Fender Telecaster and distinctive boogie rock style, Rossi helped sell more than 118 million records and perform to more than 25 million fans worldwide.
Beyond the band, Rossi is a charismatic and candid storyteller. He launched successful solo tours blending music and anecdotes, including the ongoing "An Evening of Francis Rossi’s Songs from the Status Quo Songbook and More…" tour. Despite hints that Status Quo may not tour again, Rossi shows no sign of slowing down, continuing to entertain with passion, humour, and a sharp sense of self-awareness.
