BLANCMANGE, the iconic synth pop band fronted by the much admired Neil Arthur, are delighted to announce a run of new live dates for 2018, including a return to the Arts Club in Liverpool where they wowed the audience as support to Heaven 17 in 2014
Last year, Blancmange released a new album of 10 songs written and recorded by Neil Arthur and co-produced by Benge (Wrangler/John Foxx & The Maths and Gazelle Twin co-producer.) It’s been a fantastically creative period for both of them, releasing their debut album as a new electronic duo – Fader’s First Light – in June 2017 and then the final sessions for Unfurnished Rooms followed immediately in the summer. For the new Blancmange album, all the songs were written by Arthur while Benge added percussion and layers of analogue synth, with the pair then mixing the record together in the latter’s Memetune studios in Cornwall.
