Colin Blunstone: Believe In Miracles Tour
Sun 24 May
Warwick Arts Centre University of Warwick Coventry CV4 7FD
Colin Blunstone, lead singer of The Zombies and acclaimed Solo Artist, returns to UK stages with the “Believe In Miracles” Tour, his first national solo outing in 7 years. The tour title is a nod to Blunstone’s 1972 hit “I Don’t Believe In Miracles” (penned by Argent singer/guitarist Russ Ballard), but is also a reflection on his remarkable 7-decade career. Blunstone relates, “I joined The Zombies as a teen thinking it would be a two or three year adventure. Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined it would lead to a lifetime in music…and that at the tender age of 80, I’d be the subject of a documentary, recording a new album and embarking on a major tour!”. His career-spanning show will feature classics from The Zombies, favourites from his solo releases and collaborations, and debut new material from his forthcoming studio album. The Bangles’ Susanna Hoffs said it best during her heartfelt speech inducting The Zombies into The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in March 2019: “Colin…your voice is just plain sexy!” The world first fell in love with that mysteriously silky voice from The Zombies’ 1960’s singles “She’s Not There”, “Tell Her No” and “Time of the Season”. The band’s untimely demise in late 1967 led Blunstone into a solo career which began in earnest with the release of the lush and string-laden One Year in 1971, produced by former Zombies’ bandmates Rod Argent and Chris White, which scored him a Top 15 UK hit with Denny Laine’s “Say You Don’t Mind”. He has released 10 albums of his own over a period spanning more than 50 years, including 1972’s Ennismore and 1974’s Journey, and has lent his remarkable pipes to the recordings of many others, most notably the Alan Parsons Project, who featured Blunstone on their 1982 hit “Old and Wise,” as well as on several albums...
