Deacon Blue

All The Old 45s: Deacon Blue announce unplugged and amplified Greatest Hits UK & Ireland 2023  tour.

Thirty-five years since their debut single, Dignity, and millions of record sales since, Deacon Blue are digging out all their old 45s - the Top 10s, the favourites, the sing-a-long rarities - and touring the UK & Ireland in September / October 2023. The band have always thrived onstage, but they’ve never played gigs quite like this: they’ll perform two sets, with no support. The first half will be an intimate acoustic show, and then they’ll go electric for a raucous trip across their hits.

Vocalist and songwriter Ricky Ross is raring to go on this celebration of Deacon Blue’s brilliant and loyal fans, roaring the Caledonian gospel from the South Coast to the Uplands.    “ We ’ve decided to play a Greatest Hits show with a difference,”   he says.  “Yes, we intend to play all (or nearly all) the old 45s, but we also want the first half of the evening to be an intimate acoustic performance, the band gathered round the piano with acoustic guitars and whatever Dougie decides to hit. We ’ll play some album tracks and reinterpret a few favourites from the back catalogue. We ’ll take a short break then come back and make a lot of noise. We hope you can be part of that noise.”

Deacon Blue UK Tour 2023

September 15, 2023.

All The Old 45s: Deacon Blue announce unplugged and amplified Greatest Hits UK & Ireland 2023 tour, with a date at Liverpool’s M&S Bank Arena.

Thirty-five years since their debut single, Dignity, and millions of record sales since, Deacon Blue are digging out all their old 45s – the Top 10s, the favourites, the sing-a-long rarities – and touring the UK & Ireland in September / October 2023. The band have always thrived onstage, but they’ve never played gigs quite like this: they’ll perform two sets, with no support. The first half will be an intimate acoustic show, and then they’ll go electric for a raucous trip across their hits.

Kicking off in the birthplace of pop (as Ross’s recent memoir attests, everything comes back to The Beatles), the tour will launch in Liverpool – which has long held a special place in the band’s collective heart – before travelling the length of the land. Ross, co-vocalist Lorraine McIntosh, Dougie Vipond (drums), Jim Prime (keyboards), Gregor Philp (guitar) and Lewis Gordon (bass) will breathe new life into well-loved songs like Dignity, Loaded, Wages Day, Real Gone Kid, I’ll Never Fall In Love Again, Your Swaying Arms, Twist & Shout, Your Town, The Hipsters and City Of Love. And so many more.

No under 14s are permitted in the standing zones. All under 14s must be accompanied by an adult. Tickets are priced from £46.01-£57.31 per person.

Deacon Blue announce Brighton concert

Deacon Blue are heading to Brighton

‘All The Old 45s’ : Deacon Blue announce unplugged and amplified Greatest Hits UK & Ireland 2023 tour, which includes a performance at the Brighton Centre on 30th September 2023 – Tickets HERE .

Thirty-five years since their debut single, ‘Dignity’, and millions of record sales since, Deacon Blue are digging out all their old 45s – the Top 10s, the favourites, the sing-a-long rarities – and touring the UK & Ireland in September/October 2023. The band have always thrived onstage, but they’ve never played gigs quite like this: they’ll perform two sets, with no support. The first half will be an intimate acoustic show, and then they’ll go electric for a raucous trip across their hits.

Vocalist and songwriter Ricky Ross is raring to go on this celebration of Deacon Blue’s brilliant and loyal fans, roaring the Caledonian gospel from the South Coast to the Uplands. “We’ve decided to play a Greatest Hits show with a difference,” he says. “Yes, we intend to play all (or nearly all) the old 45s, but we also want the first half of the evening to be an intimate acoustic performance, the band gathered round the piano with acoustic guitars and whatever Dougie decides to hit.

And so many more.

The dates will culminate in a homecoming show at Glasgow’s OVO Hydro, a stone’s throw away from the Finnieston Crane, which defined their debut album, ‘Raintown’. It’s a suitably celebratory space for the final fling on a special tour of Deacon Blue’s greatest hits – and the rest – as they reel in the years and the ships and the songs, in the hurricane days and summers and suns, amplified and unplugged, surrounded by friends in cities of love.

Trentham Gardens, beautifully restored and centrally located within the estate, ranked as the fifth most visited paid attraction in the 2021 Visit England survey.

“Trentham holds a rich historical legacy and stands as a renowned local landmark. It serves as a vital sanctuary for the community, fostering reflection and inspiration.”

Trentham captivates visitors from various places, joyfully embracing families spanning generations – grandparents, parents, children, loved ones, and friends gather to discover the scenery, observe wildlife, draw inspiration from the gardens, and partake in a variety of activities and events available.

Since 2003, the 725-acre estate once owned by the Dukes of Sutherland for more than four centuries has undergone a significant rejuvenation project.

Trentham Gardens, renowned for its Italianate Gardens designed by Charles Barry in the 1830s and meticulously restored by leading landscape designers, offers the UK’s inaugural ‘barefoot’ walk. Visitors can enjoy a delightful children’s play area, maze, and a scenic stroll around the mile-long lake fashioned by Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown in the 18th century. Additionally, Trentham houses the Trentham Garden Centre and an extended Shopping Village—a diverse collection of shops and dining options, complemented by a 119-bedroom Premier Inn Hotel.

Trentham is a haven for conservation and biodiversity, highlighted by the Monkey Forest where guests can stroll among 140 free-roaming Barbary macaques within their natural woodland habitat. The area features vast woodlands officially recognized as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), offering grazing spaces for rare breed herds and wild black fallow deer. Additionally, Trentham has recently reintroduced Eurasian Beavers and endangered water voles to enhance its environmental diversity.
