Led by the unmistakable bass mastery and vocals of Mark King, the band have sold over 30 million albums, delivered 18 UK Top 40 singles, and earned a reputation as one of the tightest and most electrifying live bands on the planet.
Their Australian tour will showcase their signature sound and progressive musicianship that defined their rise and with a setlist stacked with classics including ‘Lessons in Love,’ ‘Something About You,’ ‘Running in the Family,’ ‘Hot Water,’ and ‘Love Games’, it offers fand a rare opportunity to witness one of the greats in action.
