One of the UK’s finest vocalists, Midge Ure, will make a welcome return to Morecambe next month.

Midge will be playing at the Platform in Morecambe, on Thursday 7 February as part of his European tour, performing a solo acoustic show.

Midge has scooped both an Ivor Novello and a Grammy award amid a glittering career of achievements as a writer, singer and record producer.

The star has been involved with numerous bands – Slik, The Rich Kids, Thin Lizzy, Ultravox, Visage and, the most famous one off group in history, Band Aid. His songs, ‘Vienna’, ‘Dancing with Tears in My Eyes’, ‘If I Was’ and ‘Do They Know Its Christmas’ show him to be a songwriter with few peers. Midge’s renditions of these songs and his impressive interpretation of the Walker Brothers ‘No Regrets’ demonstrate that he is also a very fine vocalist.

• The show starts at 8pm and Tickets cost £14 adults and £13 concessions, from the Box Office on 01524 582803. Early booking is advised to avoid disappointment.
