The Voice of Ultravox, Midge Ure, Band-in-a-Box Tour hits the stage Sunday, August 25 for an 8 pm show. Having celebrated his 70th birthday with a sold out show at the historic Royal Albert Hall in October 2023, Ure is keen to continue the celebration of his life in music by announcing a new North American tour for August and September 2024.
The tour will give Ure the opportunity to showcase the musical breadth and versatility of his extensive song catalog written during the past 50 years, giving old and new fans alike a truly remarkable night of hits and rarely heard gems.
Ure says, “I performed live long before I was ever allowed anywhere near a recording studio and as much as I love spending time writing and recording, live music remains my first love. This ‘Band in a Box’ tour will allow me to not only play a wide selection of hits from my past, but perform some of the most requested favorites.”
