Erasure The Neon Tour pre-sale tickets:
We’ve secured a 24-hour presale to the tour which starts at Absolute Radio Tickets at 10am on Thursday 3rd September 2020.
Andy Bell says of the tour: “We’re so excited to be able to - at last - announce dates for The Neon Tour! We’d hoped to have seen you sooner but can’t wait to see you all in 2021. Until then, keep safe!”
‘The Neon’ is available to buy right now as a limited-edition neon orange vinyl, limited-edition neon green cassette and limited-edition CD right here.
Written and produced by Erasure, the album saw Andy Bell and Vince Clarke embrace older technology, as Vince explains: “There’s a warmth to them. There’s also a real beauty in putting different analogue synthesisers together, too – a Pro-One, a Sequential Circuits, a Moog – they give this lovely sheen.”
Musically it was also inspired by pop music through the decades, as Andy says: “It was about refreshing my love – hopefully our love – of great pop. I want kids now to hear these songs! I wanted to recharge that feeling that pop can come from anyone.”
