The Tony Hadley Golf Classic is to be held on the 9th September 2005.

There will be many celebraties attending te golf day, here are a few of them.

Tony Hadley

Tony has been an accomplished solo artist for nearly 15 years following his successful career with Spandau Ballet. On 10 October 2005 he celebrates 25 years as a professional musician - an incredible achievement by any standards.

As well as his love for song writing and recording, his real passion lies within the live arena - something he hopes will continue for a very long time. Being a solo artist with a versatile voice has enabled Tony to work with musicians and within musical areas that are extremely far-reaching and diverse. Tony has worked with a variety of talented producers and musicians. Ron Nevison and Steve Lukather were involved in his very first solo album ‘The State of Play’ recorded in Los Angeles in the early 90’s. Duran Duran’s Simon le Bon (Tony’s supposed archrival!) very kindly sang backing vocals on Tony’s version of “Save a Prayer” on the album ‘True Ballads’. This album also featured recordings of some of his favourite songs such as ‘Slave to Love’, ‘She’s Gone’ and, one of the most beautiful songs ever written, ‘Woman in Chains’. During the 1990’s, Tony and his band were honoured to play for the British Troops in Bosnia, Kosovo, Kuwait, the Falkland Islands and Northern Ireland, witnessing first-hand the conditions and pressures the soldiers had to endure. Tony is a keen footballer and likes nothing better than being on the pitch himself and of course watching his favourite team - Arsenal. Last year also saw the release of Tony’s autobiography which achieved top 10 status in the bestsellers list. The paperback version incorporating an additional final chapter is due out this year. Tony has supported Action Medical Research on several occasions and the Peterborough Committee are particularly delighted that he has chosen to host their celebrity golf day on an annual basis. Besides the Golf Day, one of Tony’s favourite events he undertook for Action Medical Research was the Peru trek to Machu Pichu with friends Brian Hornsby and John Glover... ...an experience that will never leave them!
