Britain's Got Talent and Collabro star Richard Hadfield Launches Solo Career at The Piano Works Farringdon 

Richard Hadfield, UK number one album selling vocalist, formerly of Collabro - winners of Britain's Got Talent 2014, has just revealed his new look and news of his first gig as a solo artist.

Following his departure from the musical theatre boy band back in June of this year, the 22-year-old has shredded an incredible 4 stone in just 4 months, reporting that his feud with the band sparked his freedom and a chance to establish a solo career.

But while Richard's new look is complete with his impressively toned torso, the improvement and passion in his performance can't go unnoticed either. And his YouTube album - Swingfield, which demonstrates his passion for jazz and swing and boasts well over 200,000 views delivers a glimpse of what we can expect to see upon Richard's return to the music scene.

He is currently writing his first album and will be performing his music at The Piano Works in Farringdon, London's only non-stop live music venue on Sunday 11^th December. The 400 capacity Victorian listed venue provides the perfect place for Richard's comeback gig where he will showcase the depth of his talent.

Tickets are now on sale for £20 and can be purchased from http://pianoworks.bar/showcase-richard-hadfield/. Doors open at midday with Richard's performance starting at 12.30pm.
