Martin McAloon of Prefab Sprout

Martin is thrilled to be embarking on his second major UK tour this Autumn. Although born with the open road in his blood, Prefab Sprout appear to have had a forty-year aversion to playing live and he hopes these new shows will address his gigging addiction. He’ll be revisiting the repertoire written by his brother Paddy that stretches back through the classic Prefab Sprout albums: Swoon, Steve McQueen, Protest Songs, Langley Park to Memphis, Jordan: The Comeback, Let's Change the World With Music, Andromeda Heights, The Gunman and Other Stories, I Trawl The Megahertz and Crimson/Red. Expect all the hits and pared-back acoustic versions of Prefab Sprout’s most beloved songs, along with some storytelling and the opportunity to meet Martin after the show.
