Don’t miss an epic musical celebration featuring the music of Prince from his former backing band, The New Power Generation, who come to the UK in December for just four unique shows in London, Birmingham, Manchester and Glasgow.
Keyboardist Morris Hayes, who was in the NPG for more than 20 years and served as Prince’s Musical Director for much of that time, put the band back together for the official Prince Tribute concert in October 2016. After that historic night, they decided to reunite to bring a smaller version of the performance honouring their former band leader, Prince, on the road. Just as Prince was known to be the consummate live performer and his concerts with the NPG were legendary, the band continues to receive acclaim for their tight arrangements, stellar sound and the electrifying pace of their shows.
The NPG’s “Celebrating Prince” shows have been described as a “non-stop musical kaleidoscope of the most iconic chart-topping hits from all eras of Prince’s illustrious four-decade career,” and the band plays as if their famous boss was still front and centre. Lead singer, MacKenzie, has been called a “discovery of note” and has overwhelmingly won over both fans and critics alike. MacKenzie is joined on lead vocals by rapper Tony M, who Prince featured on early Prince & the New Power Generation releases. The show focuses on Prince’s entire catalogue with NPG songs like ‘Diamonds and Pearls,’ ‘Gett Off’, ‘Cream’ ‘7,’ and ‘Sexy MF’ intermingled with hits like ‘1999,’ ‘Let’s Go Crazy’, ‘Pop Life’, ‘Sign O’ The Times’, ‘Purple Rain’, ‘U Got The Look’ and ‘Kiss’.
Prince fans dance, laugh, cry and sing along to the soulful and electrifying shows and walk away saying it is one of the best shows they ever saw! Tickets are on sale now.
