THE QUIREBOYS
CELEBRATE THREE DECADES WITH STUNNING HAT-TRICK
ANNOUNCE UK TOUR NOVEMBER 2014
ALBUM: BLACK EYED SONS
RELEASED DATE: OUT NOW
The brand new album “Black Eyed Sons” kicked off 30th
anniversary celebrations. Top value package will include live CD and live DVD
and will be released on Monday 16th June, via Off Yer Rocka
Recordings.
Following three sold out intimate shows to mark the start of their
30th anniversary, The Quireboys will embark on a 5 month world tour which will
commence with a long awaited return to The US & Canada early August.
They will be back mid November for the UK leg, which goes on sale this
weekend. Expect new material from the forthcoming Black Eyed Sons, triple pack,
rarities plus all the classics.
Special guests for the UK will be Hispanic Blues Rock legends, Vargas
Blues Band, who have recently signed to The Quireboys label, Off Yer Rocka
Recordings.
The year is 1984. The miners’ strike is in full swing. Apple sells its
first Macintosh home computer and Whitesnake release Slide It In. Prince Harry
is born…
…and the band that would become the Quireboys makes its infamous debut
at a heaving pub in Putney.
Thirty years down the line and it’s time to celebrate a golden age of
music with the ultimate party band; in 2014 the Quireboys continue to fuse
retro-fuelled hooks with rock n roll evolution.
Following hot on the heels of last year’s critically acclaimed
Beautiful Curse – the band’s biggest-selling record since their early 90s
heyday – “Black Eyed Sons” was produced by the legendary Chris Tsangarides and
represents yet another career high for a band bang in form.
Spike (vocals), Guy Griffin (guitars), Paul Guerin (guitars) and Keith
Weir (keys) have spent more than a decade rebuilding and revitalising one of
British rock n roll’s best-loved brands. “Black Eyed Sons” is the triumphant
result.
“I’ve always felt like I’m 30-years-old,” jokes Spike. “So this is our
time. And I’d just like to raise a toast to the next 30 years.”
