The Albert Hammond Songbook Tour 2016 is a worldwide tour where Hammond's live performances showcase his tremendous musical abilities. He's joined on stage by his four-piece band to present a stunning two-hour journey through five decades of our lives. One of the world's greatest songwriters, Albert Hammond has accumulated no less than 360 million records sold worldwide.

Perhaps better known for his hit recordings, Hammond is also an esteemed songwriter who has written some of the best-selling songs in music history including: The Air That I Breathe for The Hollies. Hammond co-wrote many famous numbers, such as To All The Girls I've Loved Before, a major '80s hit for Julio Iglesias and Willie Nelson; One Moment in Time performed by Whitney Houston, and When You Tell Me That You Love Me by Diana Ross.

He collaborated with Diane Warren on Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now, which became a number one hit in 1987 for Starship and for which he was nominated for an Oscar, Golden Globe and a Grammy Award. Hammond also wrote I Don't Wanna Live Without Your Love, a hit for Chicago that peaked at number three on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1988.
