A Celebration of Talk Talk and Mark Hollis

"Following the death of the band's lead singer and chief songwriter in February 2019, A Celebration of Talk Talk and Mark Hollis brings together founding and former members of the band, Simon Brenner, Martin Ditcham, Rupert Black and Jeep Hook, as well as bassist John Mckenzie, to perform as the Spirit of Talk Talk. They will be joined by a line-up of very special guests to be announced, all of whom have been touched by Talk Talk's music and inspired by Hollis.

With Grammy- and Ivor Novello-award winning songwriter Phil Ramacon as musical director, this collection of extraordinary musicians will perform songs from across the band's eclectic catalogue, including their groundbreaking final records Spirit of Eden (1988) and Laughing Stock (1991) neither of which have ever before been performed live."
