A Look At Life And A Look Of Live

The hits earned their place in pop history. From ‘Poison Arrow’ to ‘The Look Of Love’, from ‘All Of My Heart’ and ‘Be Near Me’, to ‘When Smokey Sings’, ABC were the band that redefined glamour and cool.

Led by the charismatic Martin Fry, they enjoyed transatlantic success as their debut album ‘The Lexicon of Love’ proved as artful as a Warhol silkscreen and glossier than Marilyn’s lipstick – brilliantly distinctive, fizzing with bright ideas and unapologetically flamboyant.

Frontman Martin Fry harked back to a golden era of luxe, as though Cole Porter had been re-imagined among the narrow streets of Sheffield. Little wonder his sleek, opulent, and beautiful debut retains the affection of listeners four decades on. With good reason, it has stood the test of time. And so has Martin Fry, who will bring an evening of stripped-back music and conversation to UK theatres in celebration. His intimate tour follows a sold-out tour of the UK, which included three sell out nights at London Palladium, and coincides with the publication of his autobiography.

Martin says: ‘I have been very lucky in my career to have played venues around the world from massive arenas in the States to Sheffield Town Hall in my hometown, where we marked 40 years of The Lexicon of Love. However, this tour really is something a bit different; an opportunity for stripped-back music and conversation with my fans. It will be really special, I can’t wait.’

Meet & Greet – Pre-show meet and greet with Martin including photograph and autograph. Best seats in the House and an exclusive ABC goody bag.

VIP – Next best seats and goody bag.
