Singer Olly Murs has shared his excitement for his summer performance in Exeter and has told fans to expect ‘high energy entertainment.’

The popstar will come to Powderham Castle on July 29 and will be joined by special guest star Louisa Johnson, who won X Factor in 2015.

Up to 12,000 fans are expected to see Olly whose latest album 24 Hrs was his fourth consecutive number one hit.

The singer said: “We’ve played at the castle before; the venue is iconic – being on stage and seeing a castle – I mean it’s pretty awesome really.

“These are fun gigs, gigs I wanted to do. I had options to go to different parts of the world and do different things and I just felt that I hadn’t done a summer tour of the UK for quite some time – the last being in 2013.

“So it’s been four years since I’ve done a summer tour. And as an artist you do all the arenas but not everyone wants to go to an arena; not everyone can make it. So I wanted to go around the country.

“I like Exeter – it’s a place that doesn’t necessarily get big gigs all the time. It’s great to come and do gigs like this down at Powderham. Hopefully all the fans will come along. I hope, hope, that I’ll put on a fantastic show.”
