Description
The Stranglers are the last true survivors, most highly revered and original British bands to emerge from the late 70s UK punk scene. If the Sex Pistols were the iconic British punk band of the late seventies, The Stranglers were the most genuine, a real reflection of what was going on whilst being the most commercially successful without any compromise. Four decades, 17 albums, and 24 Top 40 hit singles later, the four-piece originally from Guildford, are making a welcomed to North America for the first time in 20 years.
Hit singles such as Golden Brown, Peaches, No More Heroes, Skin Deep, and Strange Little Girl, have secured the band a firm place in the rock and roll history books. Regularly hitting the headlines with an instinctive nose for controversy and confrontation, the band s genuine aura of danger and cool combined with tough, and imaginative songs, they created original and dynamic melodies and b driven aggression that has influenced so many bands to this day.
Their legacy has not only inspired countless bands across the globe, but they are also one of the longest standing, continuously successful and original bands of our time, thanks to their dedicated international fan base, a knack for writing killer signature songs, and an undeniable ability to deliver top rated live performances. Their to North America is an opportunity to see one of the few British bands that still reflect so much of what that iconic period was really about.
In 1977 the Stranglers released their extraordinary debut album, Rattus Norvegicus and firmly established themselves as the world's first progressive punk outlaws. Seminal long players like No More Heroes and Black and White followed before the band released probably the finest live album of that era, Live (X Cert).
