Founded in London in 1977, The Psychedelic Furs have since released eight studio albums – ‘The Psychedelic Furs” (1980), ‘Talk Talk Talk’ (1981), ‘Forever Now’ (1982), ‘Mirror Moves’ (1984), Midnight To Midnight’ (1987), ‘Book Of Days’ (1989), ’World Outside’ (1991) and ‘Made Of Rain’ (2020).
They released many classic singles throughout the ’80’s and into the 90’s, including: ‘Sister Europe,’ ‘Love My Way,’ ‘The Ghost In You,’ ’ Pretty In Pink,’ ‘Heaven,’ ‘Heartbreak Beat,’ ’All That Money Wants’ and ‘Until She Comes’.
Kicking off in Nottingham’s Rock City on 2 April, the tour will see the iconic post/punk band take in shows in London, Glasgow, Liverpool, Manchester, Cambridge, and Bristol.
To accompany them on the tour, the Furs are very pleased to announce they will be joined by old friends and special guests: Wasted Youth. Reforming in 2022 for what will be some of their first live shows in nearly four decades, the revived post/punk outfit will be providing formidable support at a number of the upcoming April fixtures. With a line up featuring all of their surviving members including Rocco Barker (guitar), Nick Nicole (synth), and Ken Scott (vocals and guitar), Wasted Youth will be reacquainting audiences with a selection of favourites from their revolutionary back-catalogue which features such gems as “Rebecca’s Room”, “Wildlife” and “I’ll Remember You”.
In addition, The Furs can also announce that they will be joined for all of their regional shows by Pauline Murray and the Invisible Girls, the legendary lead vocalist of Penetration as-accompanied by John Cooper Clarke’s backing band.
At the London Royal Albert Hall, support will come from longstanding musical innovator Jah Wobble & The Invaders of the Heart.
The dates will see Psychedelic Furs performing a number of tracks from their critically acclaimed 2020 album Made Of Rain, alongside many of their worldwide hits and fan favourites.
