Yazoo To Perform At Sónar 2008
26 February 2008
Not long after founding Depeche Mode, Vince Clarke, the group's main composer, threw in the towel to go his own way with the punk veteran Alison Moyet. Drawing deeply from the legacy of Kraftwerk and with Alison's vocals influenced by blues, Yazoo breathed life into the flame of synthpop, accumulating hit after hit, until they both decided to go their separate ways after their second album.
Mute is now releasing their remastered classics on the four-LP compilation "In Your Room", a wonderful opportunity that shows that another encounter with the duo so that they can give us their best moments live is well worth it.
And to celebrate such a long anticipated reunion, Sónar will be the first festival to play host to them.
Yazoo will be performing on Saturday 21st June.
For ticketing information visit the Sónar website.

4 Disc Box Set & Live Dates
28 January 2008
Yazoo (Vince Clarke & Alison Moyet) have announced that they will reunite for the first time in over 25 years for Reconnected, a UK tour in June, starting in Glasgow on the 4th and culminating in a headline show at London's Hammersmith Apollo on the 18th.
Tickets are available from 1st February direct from the venue or online at ticketmaster.co.uk, gigsandtours.com, livenation.co.uk.
Exclusive ticket pre-sale available 25th January from alisonmoyet.com.
The tour is preceded by In Your Room, a 4 disc box set which includes:
- Remasters and 5.1 mixes of both Yazoo's classic albums Upstairs At Eric's and You And Me Both
- B-sides and remixes
- DVD featuring a new short film containing exclusive new interviews with Vince Clarke and Alison Moyet and the promo videos for Don't Go, The Other Side Of Love, Nobody's Diary, Situation (1990) and Only You (1999)
The joyous, unlikely coming together of Vince Clarke, who had just left Depeche Mode, and Alison Moyet lasted for only 2 albums, saw them performing only 24 concerts worldwide, but left an indelible mark on pop.
Yazoo released Upstairs At Eric's in July 1982 then parted company just 12 months later on release of the second album You And Me Both, which reached Number 1 in the UK.
Vince and Alison have since gone on to have their own successful careers, Vince with Erasure and Alison as a solo performer, both releasing Top 30 critically acclaimed hit albums in 2007 - Erasure with Light At The End Of The World and Alison Moyet with The Turn.
The Reconnected Tour will also see Yazoo perform material from You And Me Both for the very first time as well as pop classics Only You and Don't Go.

"It's been really good going back to these songs after such a long while. Many of them have never been played live. I'm looking forward to performing them with Alison for all the fans who've enjoyed our music through the years but never had a chance to see Yazoo in concert." Vince Clarke
"Playing this material live is not about revision for me, it is about finishing something we started - writing, recording, performing. Three parts of a whole. A salmon cycle. It's like going home." Alison Moyet
