One of the truly original English Synth pop acts and a major influence on everyone from Hot Chip to Metronomy, Blancmange take to the road for a Christmas shakedown.

After plying their big electronica sounds across Europe this summer including a triumphant Bestival appearance, Neil Arthur, Graham Henderson and Pandit Dinesh hit the road with their catalogue of leftfield pop classics. Equipped with trademark fat analogue synth sounds and a bag of classical Indian percussion, Blancmange will be performing tracks from their latest album ‘blanc burn’ alongside timeless new wave classics like ‘Living On The Ceiling’, ‘Waves’ and ‘Don’t Tell Me’. They may even dust down their infectious cover of Abba’s ‘The Day Before You Came’.

Available only at the Live dates will be a 180 gm vinyl pressing of the LP “blanc burn”. For more info http://www.blancmange.co.uk
