Happy Mondays – Greatest Hits Tour.
Legendary Manchester band Happy Mondays‘ classic line-up of front man Shaun Ryder, Bez (freaky dancing and percussion), Rowetta (vocals), Gary Whelan (drums), Paul Ryder (bass), Mark Day (guitar) and and Dan Broad (MD/guitar/keys) will perform timeless hits such as Step On, Kinky Afro, Hallelujah, W.F.L., Loose Fit, Judge Fudge and 24 Hour Party People, amongst many others.
Frontman Shaun Ryder said, “Be great to be back out on the road for some pre-Christmas partying! Looking forward to playing all the hits and more at these shows.”
Bez said, “Really excited and looking forward to the tour – can't wait to do some freaky dancing.”
Rowetta added, “I'm really looking forward to this tour, almost 30 years since I first got on stage with the Mondays. The band and the fans are like family to me and I still love singing these songs as much as I did in 1990.”
After signing to Tony Wilson's Factory Records, the late '80s saw the Mondays become the pioneers of the Madchester sound, as they blended their love of funk, rock, psychedelia and house with the sounds of the UK's emerging rave scene. The band's third album, 1990's platinum-selling Pills ‘n' Thrills and Bellyaches, led to the Happy Mondays crossing over into the mainstream to become icons of Britain's biggest cultural phenomenon for a generation.
