Essex is the only name on the bill, so the whole night is built around him. The tour title, Thanks for the Memories, is the one he's taking across the country, and the Plymouth show is part of that same sequence. If you've followed his work, you'll know the sort of set to expect: a career-spanning look back rather than a showcase for a new record. It's a retrospective tour, so the songs will be drawn from across his catalogue.
