Hue and Cry: Electro & Acoustic

Following a phenomenal return to the road in 2024 Hue and Cry are bringing their wonderful Electro Acoustic show to Lytham.

Pay Kane said ‘The core of what we do is electro acoustic – it’s how we started writing and playing as young lads, and it’s what still drives us today. We always play our classics , but keyboard and voice allows you to refresh some of the other songs in our catalogue as well as bring something to pop covers’

Brothers Patrick and Gregory Kane formed Hue and Cry in1984 and the duo made a huge impact with albums ‘Seduced and Abandoned’ and ‘Remote’ as well as massive hit singles ‘Looking For Linda’ and ‘Labour Of Love’ and ‘Violently’.

Albums like ‘Stars Crash Down’, ‘Showtime’ and ‘Jazz Not Jazz’ ensured Hue and Cry’s continued triumph in the 1990’s.

To date Hue and Cry have sold more than two million records 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 band have undertaken a multitude of their own headline tours and made numerous festival appearances. The duo were recognised by their peers when they were presented with a Lifetime Achievement Award at the Scottish Music Awards.

Having made a welcome return to performing in front of audiences in both their ‘electro/acoustic’ duo and ‘full band’ set-ups, Hue and Cry continued to impress.
