Despite saying farewell on a 2015 tour , Barry Manilow is returning to the road – and Atlanta.

The hit machine will perform at the Fox Theatre at 7:30 p.m. July 27.

Tickets for the concert will go on sale at 10 a.m. June 4 via www.foxtheatre.org, the venue box office and by calling 1-855-285-8499; a Citi cardmember presale runs from 10 a.m. May 31 through 10 p.m. June 3 (check www.citiprivatepass.com for details).

Tickets are $49-$299.

Manilow, who recently graced the cover of People magazine , just released "This is My Town: Songs of New York," which pays tribute to his Brooklyn upbringing with tracks including the classics "On Broadway" and "Lonely Town" and original Manilow compositions, "Coney Island" and "On the Roof."

Manilow’s “One Last Time!” tour visited Infinite Energy Arena in Duluth in June 2015; the last time he played the Fox was April 2002.
