One of the world’s most popular and acclaimed live bands, Simple Minds, is heading to Wellington in February. With music styles spanning synth-pop, new wave, and art rock, Simple Minds commanded the stage in the 1980s. The band’s reputation eventually propelled them to stadium-sized gigs, which they filled with anthem-like choruses. Head to the TSB Arena and delve into their enduring catalogue live. You’ll hear global hits like Alive and Kicking, Promised You A Miracle, Waterfront, Don’t You (Forget About Me), Belfast Child, and Sanctify Yourself. It won’t take long before you understand why the band has sold over 60 million albums worldwide.
The tour includes a very special guest — Gary Numan. Rising to fame with hits like Are ‘Friends’ Electric? and Cars, Gary pioneered a distinctive sound that helped define the future of electronic music in the 80s. His sound has inspired artists across rock, electronic, and alternative music.
