Bush to perform again 35 years after only live tour
Print Edition
BRITISH singer Kate Bush yesterday announced a surprise series of live shows in London later this year, 35 years after her one and only tour.
The 55-year-old, who recently launched a new album, “50 Words For Snow,” will play 15 dates at the Hammersmith Apollo in August and September.
Bush had her first No. 1 in Britain at the age of just 19 with “Wuthering Heights” in 1978, and went on tour for six weeks the following year. But despite the success of the “Tour of Life”, a theatrical spectacle involving magicians, poetry and 17 different costume changes, it would prove a unique event.
Bush went on to give a string of hits, including “Running Up That Hill,” “Babooshka,” “Wow” and “The Man with the Child in his Eyes”, but she never again performed a full concert. Fans had to make do with occasional brief appearances, including in 2002 when she sang with David Gilmour on Pink Floyd’s “Comfortably Numb” at the Royal Festival Hall in London.
Various reasons have been advanced for her refusal to take to the stage, from her fear of flying to her desire to work on her music in solitude.
