Although their heyday was the 60s, the duo have been playing concerts and collaborating on new songs, with other artistes as well as each other, ever since. Former choir-boy Hyland is noted for hits such as Sealed with a Kiss and Ginny Come Lately.
Tillotson scored a string of hits in the 60s with classics such as It Keeps Right On A-Hurtin and Poetry in Motion. Music critics at the time noted that both artistes made significant contributions to redefining the American sound of the 1960s.
Tickets for the Johnny Tillotson and Brian Hyland concert are still available from the ThaiTicketMajor website. They are priced between THB800 and THB2500. The concert will be staged in the main auditorium of the Thailand Cultural Centre and is scheduled to begin at an earlier than usual time of 16:30. Doors will open 30 minutes beforehand.
