Hazel O'Connor and the Subterraneans: Breaking Glass 30th Anniversary |
|
|
Celebrating thirty years of the iconic film Breaking Glass, award winning singer-songwriter Hazel O'Connor makes her long awaited return to the North East in this very special one-off show. As a grand finale to a hectic 30th Anniversary year of touring, Hazel and The Subterraneans, with stunning saxophonist Clare Hirst (Bellestars, Communards, Bowie) perform all the songs from this groundbreaking film, live at ARC for the first time ever. Breaking Glass Live melds Hazel's superb vocals with Clare’s exquisite sax and The Subterraneans’ own distinctive blend of guitars, bass and drums. Relive those classic tracks from Will You and Eighth Day to previously un-performed gems including Writing on The Wall and Top of The Wheel, all of which seem even more relevant in our present times. Hazel O'Connor with her sultry vocals is no stranger to the live scene and she continues to woo and delight audiences worldwide. Consistently recording and touring, Hazel took to the road with a stage show about her amazing life story, Beyond Breaking Glass. It took Edinburgh by storm in 1998 and again in 2008 and has toured the world. The impossibilityof performing classic new wave songs accompanied only by the celebrated Irish harp player, Cormac De Barra, has been wooing audiences since those first shows, all those years ago. Hazel has recorded a studio album every couple of years since Breaking Glass was released in 1980, and several live albums including Eighth Day Live In Brighton with The Subterraneans. “The expressive power of her singing, her songwriting craft and warm, strong personality." The Times Support comes from Tensheds.
