Tickets for a concert featuring singing legends Billy Ocean and Alexander O’Neal have sold out.

The Soul Party is the first event to sell out for this year’s Rochester Castle Concerts in July after tickets went on sale two months ago.

The concert will see the two stars share the stage on Friday, July 20.

Britain’s biggest black recording star Billy Ocean, a former tailor in London’s Savile Row, will perform his string of hits, including the song that gave him his first break - Love Really Hurts Without You.

He will be joined by Alexander O’Neal who has clocked-up more than 162 weeks in the Guinness Book of Albums and still holds the record for an African-American performer selling out six nights at Wembley Arena.

Tickets are still available for all other concerts featuring Jools Holland, Steps and The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
