The Wonder Stuff
from 19/04/2010 until 19/04/2010.
Monday 19th April
SW1 Productions present
The
Wonder Stuff will perform the HUP album in its entirety (and in the
originally intended order). The show will also feature some of the
extra tracks that appeared on single releases during this era along
with a greatest hits selection recorded by the group during their
colourful twenty-four year career.
When the
Wonder Stuff released their first album, The Eight Legged Groove
Machine, in 1988, the British press wrote scores of articles about the
band, mainly because of the arrogant self-confidence of their leader,
vocalist/guitarist Miles Hunt. Hunt's brash public image was the Wonder
Stuff personified -- mean, self-satisfied, self-serving, and scathingly
witty. Accordingly, their colourful mixture of pop melodies, loud
guitars, sneering lyrics, and touches of dance music was sometimes
brilliant and sometimes banal.
After a break up in 1994 the band have been back together since the
early 2000s and have continued to play shows and festivals all over the
world ever since. In June 2009, the group headlined the Avalon Stage at
the Glastonbury Festival, one of a number of festival appearances at
which the group would appear during the year. December 2009 saw the
group return to their original stomping ground with a very special
homecoming show at the 02 Academy in Birmingham to perform their HUP
album in its entirety which was recorded for release early in 2010
along with a full studio re-recording of their classic 1989 album.
With
extremely special guests still to be announced for this show we suggest
you get you tickets quickly as this will be one very special gig.
