About this event

80s icons Hue and Cry are bringing a special show to Glasgow in 2026, part of their upcoming Full Band Scottish tour. The Glasgow show will feature special guests Johnny Hates Jazz . Brothers Patrick and Gregory Kane formed Hue and Cry in1984 and the duo made a huge impact with the release of their debut album Seduced and Abandoned (1987) which featured their first top ten single Labour of Lov e. The follow up album Remote continued the trend and produced the huge hits Looking for Linda & Violently . Albums like Stars Crash Down , Showtime and Jazz Not Jazz ensured Hue and Cry ’s continued successful run through the 90’s, whilst their 2005 appearances as finalists on ITV’s primetime show Hit Me Baby One More Time , featuring their version of Beyonce’s Crazy In Love , thrust the band firmly back into the mainstream limelight. Hue and Cry have sold more than two million records worldwide, released 15 studio albums and performed alongside some of the greatest artists in music history - appearing with U2, James Brown, Madonna, Al Green and Van Morrison. The brothers will be honoured with the Outstanding Achievement Award at the 2025 Scottish Music Awards in recognition of their career spanning across four decades. “It’s always the most exciting thing to be playing live with the full Hue And Cry band, we can give all the hits - and audience favourites - the full widescreen treatment. It’s also an honour to be playing these gigs with icons of the era such as Johnny Hates Jazz. Come and see us - looking as sharp as you like - and let’s elegantly party together.” – Pat Kane “We’re delighted to be taking the full band on the road again following the recent success of our 40th Anniversary tour. The venues included on this run of dates are bigger and some of the best in the country, we cannot wait to play them.” – Greg Kane Best known for a cycle of hits in the late 1980s, Johnny Hates Jazz consists of Clark Datchler & Mike Nocito .
