Minutes and Seconds
Reaching #5 in the UK album chart, Alison Moyet’s recent longplayer ‘the minutes’ was hugely well received, being called “her best in decades” by Q, “amazing” by The Quietus and “a musical resurrection” by The Huffington Post. The accompanying tour was equally lauded, with The Times dubbing it “triumphant” and the Evening Standard stating “she’s never been better”. The exuberant recordings contain a selection of material from ‘the minutes’, plus highlights from Alison’s earlier solo and Yazoo repertoires. Alison took ‘the minutes’ tour through Europe, the USA and South Africa, selling over 55,000 tickets and it culminated with a rapturous show at London’s Royal Albert Hall. Alison was joined on stage by MD John Garden (keys, guitars and programming) and Sean McGhee (backing vocals, synthesiser, guitar and programming). Alison Moyet is touring solo through Europe in November and then as Very Special Guest with Culture Club on their arena tour in the UK in December.
