Add this one to your diary - the rock'n'roll legend will play London's iconic Royal Albert Hall in 2022.

Suzi Quatro announced news of the gig, much to the excitement of her loyal fans. She's booked to play the famous venue on April 20, 2022.

It sounds like it will be a special show to remember, Quatro gave an idea of what to expect:  "How honoured I am to be doing a show at such an iconic venue as the Royal Albert Hall on April 20, 2022. By which time I will have clocked up 58 years in this business!"

"I'll be doing my solo, two hour long show with an interval, so... get ready to be royally rocked and royally entertained. I can't wait!" she exclaimed.

If that wasn't enough, the singer has another gift for us: a Christmas single, out this Friday, called 

Suzi explained how it came to be: My son was in the studio working on ideas every day for our next album, a perfect opportunity as neither of us was ‘on the road’," says Quatro. "I was sitting on the patio, relaxing, and heard this absolutely beautiful track coming out of the open studio door."

She recalled: "It was a bass line, with a sparse guitar chord, and drums. It was immediate for me. I ran into the studio (mask on of course), and told my son to set up a microphone, and without thinking, without writing anything down, I sang the first four lines of the song exactly as they ended up. That's when you know you have a great song… and we do. Merry Xmas everyone!"
