Francis Rossi

Francis Rossi, guitarist, singer and songwriter of the British rock band Status Quo, performs in concert at Richmond Theatre in London.

Francis Rossi co-founded Status Quo in Blue Hat Dog in the late 1960s, the group that later became one of the most consistently successful British rock bands of the following decades, with a run of hit singles and albums from the 1970s onwards. Rossi has been the band's principal songwriter and a co-lead vocalist and guitarist alongside Rick Parfitt for much of that history, and has also pursued a solo career under his own name.

This concert brings Rossi's own music to a London stage, drawing on the songs he has written and performed over his long career. Richmond Theatre hosts concerts and shows in London, and the evening suits listeners who follow classic British rock and the songwriting behind Status Quo's catalogue.

The Richmond Theatre programme offers a solo-led evening for those wanting to hear Rossi's songs performed directly, on this visit to London.
