British Icons MODERN ENGLISH Announce Extensive North American Tour
Legendary British band Modern English have just announced their upcoming 2022 North American headline tour. Performing its classic 1982 album, After the Snow, in its entirety—along with classics from its extensive catalog—the upcoming run will begin on Saturday, March 12 at Respectable St. in West Palm Beach, FL and hit all regions of the U.S. and select Canadian cities on separate legs through Saturday, September 24. A full listing of dates can be found below.
“When we finally play the whole of the ‘After the Snow’ album for the first time on tour, emotions will run high. Expect a lot of pent up energy and excitement. It’s been a long time coming and will be worth the wait.”
Additionally, Modern English recently released After the Snow: Live From Indigo at the O2, a live collection featuring the songs from the album on CD, CD/DVD and digital. A vinyl version of the album will be available exclusively on Record Store Day, Friday, November 26. Check out “Someone’s Calling” from After the Snow: Live From Indigo at the O2.
Simply put, “I Melt With You” by Modern English is one of the most iconic songs of the New Wave era. It garnered heavy rotation on the then-thriving Modern Rock radio format, MTV and dance clubs across the globe, and was prominently featured in the classic 1983 film Valley Girl, starring a young Nicolas Cage.
