About The Psychedelic Furs
The Psychedelic Furs may not have invented rock and roll per se, but their influence since arriving on the post-punk scorched-earth landscape four decades ago has reverberated and resonated amongst all those who cherish the sweet-and-sour spot where rawness and romanticism meet.
Born out of the UK post-punk scene and led by vocalist and songwriter Richard Butler, and his bass-wielding brother Tim, the Furs quickly developed as one of the premiere bands at college and alternative radio. They scored a flurry of major hits with “Love My Way”, “Pretty In Pink”, “Heaven”, “The Ghost In You” and “Heartbreak Beat”, in all releasing eight studio albums, spawning several compilations, a boxed set, a live concert DVD and inspiring one of the most iconic motion picture soundtracks of all time.
Nearly thirty years later, their latest release ‘Made Of Rain’ has charted in a multitude of countries and became the Furs’ second highest ranked UK album ever. It was prominently featured in end of year lists in dozens of publications worldwide.
But the Furs especially thrive live in concert, with previously headlining Glastonbury Festival, and more recently playing at esteemed venues including the Hollywood Bowl, London’s Royal Albert Hall, and New York’s Radio City Music Hall. With a dazzling live show, they continue to tour quite regularly across the globe.
The Psychedelic Furs touring lineup is Richard Butler (vocals); Tim Butler (bass); Rich Good (guitar), Amanda Kramer (keyboards), Zachary Alford (drums) and Peter DiStefano (guitar).
