We are of course talking about Sir Paul McCartney, undoubtedly one of the most defining UK musicians ever.

He will be performing two dates at Co-Op Live in Manchester, and two dates at London's O2 Arena this December, with tickets available from this Friday at 10am.

The 81-year-old first found fame in The Beatles alongside John Lennon, Ringo Starr and George Harrison, who formed in Liverpool back in 1960 and remain to this day one of the most beloved bands of all time.

Their success triggered the unmatched "Beatlemania" which saw them become heartthrobs across the globe.
