BIO

Midge Ure is usually associated with the sweeping synth scapes of Ultravox (with their hits Vienna and Dancing With Tears In My Eyes amongst others) or Visage with the genre setting Fade To Grey...

But guitar was Midges first and lasting love, and his choppy but melodic phrases weave across the Ultravox catalogue and his own solo career with hits such as If I Was in 1985, through to Breathe in 1998 which charted in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Italy & Spain.

In between all that he co wrote Do They Know Its Xmas – the record breaking charity single in 1984, which returned to the UK charts in 2004 and 2014...each time raising millions for world charity projects...

Oh and don't forget a stint in one of the premier hard rock bands of the 1970's – Thin Lizzy , with whom Midge did a short spell in 1979 – 80…standing in for the absentee Gary Moore who quit at short notice , leaving Midge 24 hours to learn a full set, and fly to the USA to help the band fulfill tour dates...
