Karen Martin, trustee at The Studio, said: “We had a phenomenal response when tickets went on sale for Tom last year, selling out in four days.

"Since then, I’ve been asking for a second date as we have a large waiting list on our ticketing website, so I am thrilled to have secured another date.”

During his time in the band Kasabian, Tom sold four million albums, celebrated five consecutive number one albums and performed all across the globe.
