Peter Andre brings the best of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons to Navan
Peter Andre, best known as a 1990s pop star, is coming to Navan for two performances of 'The Very Best of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons' in the Solstice Arts Centre, on Friday 3rd April.
This live concert celebration showcases the classic hits made famous by Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, one of the most successful vocal groups to emerge from New Jersey, USA, in the early 1960s. The production highlights the group’s enduring influence, featuring their unmistakable harmonies and the signature falsetto of lead singer Frankie Valli.
Audiences can expect many of the group’s most iconic songs, including 'Sherry', 'My Eyes Adored You', 'Big Girls Don’t Cry', and 'Can’t Take My Eyes Off You', all of which are listed as part of the show’s repertoire. The performance stars Andre, supported by a cast of seasoned performers with experience in major West End musicals, delivering a polished and energetic tribute.
Born in England to Cypriot parents and raised in Australia, Andre achieved success in the mid-1990s as a singer, topping the UK Singles Chart with 'Flava' and 'I Feel You' in 1996. After featuring in the third series of 'I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!' in 2004, he found renewed popularity and his 1995 hit 'Mysterious Girl' reached No 1 on reissue. He has continued his career in music and television, notably competing in the thirteenth series of 'Strictly Come Dancing (2015)' and starring in the 'Katie & Peter' TV franchise (2004–2009) with his then-wife Katie Price, whom he met when both took part in I'm a Celebrity.
Andre has produced twelve studio albums. In the United Kingdom, he has garnered fifteen UK Top 20 hit singles, three of which peaked at the number one position. His thirteenth album, Legacy, a mixture of new songs and reimagined versions of previous hits, is due for release in 2026.
