Following a phenomenal return to the road last year, Hue And Cry are bringing their wonderful piano & vocal show to The Venue, Dumfries on Friday 20th October, 2023.
Fans can expect to hear stunning stripped-back renditions of classics from Hue And Cry’s impressive catalogue spanning thirty nine years.
Pat Kane from the band said “The core of what we do is piano & vocal – it’s how we started writing and playing as young lads, and it’s still what drives us today. We always play our classics, but piano & voice allows you to refresh some of the other songs in our catalogue, as well as bring something to pop covers. We’re so looking forward to these gigs in the home country too!”
Pat and Greg Kane formed Hue and Cry in 1983 and the duo made a huge impact with albums ‘Seduced and Abandoned’ and ‘Remote’ as well as massive hit singles such as ‘Looking For Linda’ and ‘Labour of Love.’ Albums like ‘Stars Crash Down’ and ‘Jazz Not Jazz’ ensured Hue and Cry’s continued triumph in the 1990’s, whilst the release of the hugely applauded ‘Open Soul’ in 2008 brought them firmly back into the limelight. 2017 saw the band release their twelfth studio album, ‘Pocketful Of Stones’ to rave reviews from the press and fans can look forward to another new record from the Kane brothers in the near future.
Hue and Cry have sold in excess of two million records and tens of thousands of concert tickets worldwide, as well as performing alongside some of the greatest artists in music history, appearing with U2, James Brown, Madonna, Al Green and Van Morrison to name but a few. The duo was recognised by their peers when they were presented with the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Scottish Music Awards.
