Midge Ure

Having celebrated his 70th  birthday with a sold out show at the historic Royal Albert Hall in October2023, Midge is keen to continue the celebration of his life in music by announcing a new North Americantour for August and September 2024.The tour will give Midge the opportunity to showcase the musical breadth and versatility of his extensivesong 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 ‘Band in a Box’tour will allow me to not only play a wide selection of hits from my past but perform some of the mostrequested favorites. Revisiting these moments from my musical life is something I am really lookingforward to sharing.After the astounding audience reaction to my US tour in 2022 with Howard Jones I have decided tocontinue with the two man/Band in a Box format I had then. With Keyboards, guitars, loops and samples Ican conjure up the sonic essence of past works with Ultravox and Visage as well as my own solomaterial”
