After selling out their first show after almost 40 years in just over an hour, much-loved and acclaimed 1980s pop trio The Kane Gang have announced a follow up London date.The band – lead vocalists Martin Brammer and Paul Woods and multi-instrumentalist David Brewis – will play a special one-off London show at the legendary Dingwalls, Camden on Friday 24th January. It will see the trio revisit their mid-80s hits and will also launch an exciting collaboration with fellow North East artists Field Music.Initially booked as a one-off show at The Fire Station theatre in their hometown of Sunderland, the amazing demand for tickets has led to the band adding the London date.Martin said: “We couldn’t believe the enormous response to the announcement of our show with Field Music so we’re excited to play further afield, and as now London is my home city, it seemed the obvious choice.”
The Kane Gang landed in the upper reaches of both the US and UK charts from 1984 onwards, with songs such as Closest Thing To Heaven, Respect Yourself, Smalltown Creed, Motortown and Don’t Look Any Further as well as having two successful albums The Bad and Lowdown World of The Kane Gang and Miracle.
