THE RUDE AWAKENING LIVE IN EDINBURGH ... SATURDAY 18TH MAY 2019

TRA performing Kaleidoscope live on the same bill as the amazing Party Fears Three, in the beautiful city of Edinburgh

Ever since it's inception nearly a decade ago Party Fears Three have sought to excavate, recreate and illuminate some of the finest songs from the decade which gave the world it's finest synth-based bands and music.

Combining vintage sounds with modern technology to create a contemporary but uniquely recognisable eighties soundscape, the band has thrilled audiences at venues and festivals across the UK including last year's Party at the Palace.

Now streamlined and on the verge of it's second decade, the band continues to bring to life the music and spirit of artists such as OMD, The Human League, Ultravox, Depeche Mode, Erasure, Talk Talk, David Bowie, Tears for Fears & many more.

Heralded by The Electricity Club as "This year's most promising new act", The Rude Awakening perform their new ground-breaking "Kaleidoscope" album in it's entirety, accompanied by fellow synth acts Morgan King (Lene Lovich Band) and Ooberfuse

Morgan King recently decided to put focus back on his music as a direct result of working and touring with Lene Lovich.
In 2015 he started to write his first album as a solo artist “Grains & Grams whilst visiting Belgium, then decided to move there and start recording in 2016. For production he teamed up with Italian producer Giulio Gaietto and the album was released September 2016. In this same year he went back on to the live stage playing concerts throughout Europe. He is currently writing new material for forthcoming albums, touring and collaborating on various projects.

Ooberfuse ...Well-crafted songs delivered through powerful, emotional and heartfelt vocals combined with east-meets-west electronic music are Ooberfuse's trademarks.
