Spandau Ballet have announced a London show with their new singer, Ross William Wild.
The vocalist has replaced Tony Hadley, who announced his departure from the band last summer, ruling out performing with them in the future.
The new line up, Wild, Gary and Martin Kemp, John Keeble, and Steve Norman, will call at the Eventim Apollo on October 29. Tickets are on sale now.
Speaking about their new singer, Norman said:
"Ross not only has the technical ability to cover Spandau's songs but he's already introducing his artistic creativity to the fold. On top of that he's a right nice bloke. We struck lucky."
Wild also commented:
"Spandau's music is so current. Having listened to it from a young age and then getting back into it recently, this stuff is still so valid. That's why it's important that they keep going. Spandau Ballet isn't about one person. It isn't just about the boys that are there now. It's not about me. It was a movement. If it wasn't for Spandau so much stuff wouldn't have happened. They are pioneers. To be at the helm now with pioneers like Spandau feels just ridiculous!"
