Dearly beloved, The Revolution are back. Prince’s most famous backing band have announced their first UK shows in more than 30 years. Bobby Z, Wendy Melvoin, Lisa Coleman, Matt Fink and Brown Mark hit the London’s Shepherd’s Bush Empire stage on 13 and 14 February 2019 to celebrate the music of their late friend. Recalling their glory days, Bobby Z said: “We’re incredibly excited to be coming back to Europe. Coming over for the first time in 1981, it was both thrilling and a bit intimidating. Prince had travelled ahead of us and he told us how exciting the music scene was in London with the likes of Adam & The Ants and the New Romantics.”
“Prince said that music is medicine”, Bobby Z continued. “People need it, and we need it. In honour of him, we’ll give it everything we’ve got.”
