Laurence Jones — On My Own Tour 2027

Award winning blues-rock artist Laurence Jones comes to Leeds with his debut solo acoustic 'On My Own'tour, returning to his roots: pure blues!

The award-winning and critically acclaimed blues artist from Liverpool has opened for the likes of Ringo Starr, Sir Van Morrison, Jeff Beck, Johnny Winter, Walter Trout and recently Status Quo.

After Joining Buddy Guy on stage to jam and experience the blues first hand, Buddy remarked "He's like a young Eric Clapton" and that pretty much says it all. Laurence has just released his most personal album to date, his first ever solo acoustic album.

On My Own is an intimate record that explores recent health struggles and takes him back to his roots where it all began. The album marks a new chapter for Jones, following what he describes as the most difficult year of his life battling Crohn's disease.

Written during a flare up, On My Own reflects raw truths about living with this invisible illness, love, and life on the road. For Jones, it represents both survival and reinvention.

Dr's orders meant Jones had to re-think his high energy stage performances, trading in constant movement for a setup that allows him to sit and play. The change sparked a new creative path that's raw and organic offering a side to him fans have not seen before.

Living with Crohn's disease has shaped not only Jone's music but also his perspective, as an ambassador for Crohn's & Colitis UK, he hopes the album will resonate with others facing any struggles & invisible disease.

Determined to do things differently he set up his own label - Ron Records, named in loving memory of his grandfather. On My Own is a story driven record, weaving traditional blues with honest autobiographical story telling.

His classical guitar training begun at age 8, which he completed his Grade 8 distinction. Now fused with his lifelong passion for the Blues and playing homage to some of his blues heroes like Robert Johnson and Lightnin Hopkins.
