Ska favourites Madness will be back on the road later this year with a new tour which they announced with a little bit of French and full-on trademark enthusiasm.
"WOT-a-tour this promises to be!" the band said in a statement about the C'est La Vie Tour 2023 which will see them joined by special guests Lightning Seeds and, following its launch at the end of November, will bring them to Utilita Arena in Newcastle on December 2. Tickets for the double treat will go on sale next week.
Enduring favourites Madness first burst onto the music scene from the backstreets of Camden Town in the late seventies and went on to make an unforgettable impression with their unique look and ska-pop sound in hits such as Baggy Trousers, It Must Be Love and number one chart-topper House of Fun. By now lead singer Suggs and co. have had 10 UK top 10 albums, 15 top 10 singles and multiple accolades including an Ivor Novello award.
