Tonight's the night Olly Murs returns.
At Chicago’s at Freeport tonight Olly, 25, will perform his first gig in the district since he finished runner up to Joe McElderry in the ITV show.
From call centre worker to X Factor star in a few short months, Witham’s singing sensation is hoping this year will be as big as the last.
With Olly’s success has come a host of performances at clubs up and down the country, singing in front of thousands of rugby fans at Twickenham and opening the International Boat Show in London.
Last week the former Witham Town footballer was in Colchester taking on just one of many engagements in his busy schedule.
While co-hosting a breakfast radio show at Dream 100 he told the Times he hopes to kick start his career after the X Factor tour finishes in April.
