Ultravox will head out on tour next year for the first time in 20 years.
The tour, which will feature Ultravox’s original 1980’s line up of Midge Ure, Chris Cross, Warren Cann and Billy Currie, will perform 14 shows across the UK. Fans can look forward to the band performing material from all their albums, including Vienna, Rage in Eden and Quartet.Ultravox were one of one of the primary exponents of the British electronic pop music movement of the early 1980’s.
'Over the years we have all been caught up with a number of individual projects. When Billy and me were approached by Absolute Radio to perform an acoustic set at their inaugural launch in October at Abbey Road Studios, we took up the offer,' said Midge Ure. 'We were overwhelmed by the response of our fans, which confirmed within the band that perhaps the time was right to re-form.'
