A new tour will bring Midge Ure to Scarborough Spa in December.
Having celebrated his 70th birthday with a sold out show at the historic Royal Albert Hall in October 2023, Midge says he is keen to continue the celebration of his life in music by announcing a new 23 date UK tour for November and December 2024.
The tour will give Midge the opportunity to showcase the musical breadth and versatility of his extensive song catalogue written during the past 50 years; giving old and new fans alike a truly remarkable night of hits and rarely heard gems.
Midge says
“I performed live long before I was ever allowed anywhere near a recording studio and as much as I love spending time writing and recording, live music remains my first love.
This ‘Catalogue’ tour will allow me to not only play a wide selection of hits from my past but perform some of the most requested favourites. Revisiting these moments from my musical life is something I am really looking forward to sharing”.
Over the last five decades Midge Ure has earned Ivor Novello, Grammy and BASCAP awards along with a flotilla of gold and platinum records.
His story includes the early teen glam rock of Silk, his foray with The Sex Pistols Glen Matlock for The Rich Kids into the 80’s which saw him secure his place in musical history not just as part of Ultravox and Visage who helped shape the new romantic and electro-pop era, but as producer and co-writer of Band Aid’s ‘Do They Know It’s Christmas?’ which led to Live Aid, the summer 1985 global concert that spoke for a generation.
Midge Ure will be heading to Scarborough Spa on 5th December 2024.
