WINNER of the tenth series of the X Factor, Sam Bailey, is set to appear at Chipping Sodbury Town Hall this summer.

The talented singer will give a one night only performance on Friday, August 4 at 7.30pm.

Sam stole the hearts of the nation by winning The X Factor back in 2013, during which she received a standing ovation for her rendition of Beyoncé’s 'Listen'.

Under the mentorship of Sharon Osborne, she became a favourite on the show, and received more than one million votes over the course of the final weekend before being crowned as the winner.  

Before hitting the big time, Sam, who is originally from East London, worked as a prison officer at HM Prison Gartree and performed on cruise ships, in clubs and at music festivals for several years.

She currently lives in Leicester with her husband Craig, and their three children - Tommy, Brooke, and Miley.
