A new wave one-stop shop will tour North America this summer when Howard Jones and ABC will be hitting stages across North America with special guest Haircut 100. The full itinerary appears below.
“I’m very excited to be hitting the road with my friends ABC and Haircut 100,” Jones enthused. “Our audiences can look forward to some seriously top tunes night after night! Bring your celebratory selves to the party.”
ABC frontman Martin Fry stated, “ABC in the USA. Very excited to hit the road alongside Howard Jones and Haircut 100 for an electrifying summer tour across the USA! Get ready for an unforgettable musical journey as we bring the hits to stages nationwide. Let’s make memories and rock the house together!”
Haircut 100’s Nick Heyward added, “Ever since our last tour in 1982 we’ve been pining to play in NorthAmerica again, so this is a dream come true for us. Come down early and get your dancing shoes on,because there’s a lot of catching up to do.”

Of course, the evening will play out like an evening filled with hits from the early days of MTV, when the so-called “Second British Invasion” dominated the channel. Jones’ hits “New Song” and “What Is Love,” and “Things Can only Get Better” probably segued into or out of ABC’s “Look of Love,” “Poison Arrow”and “Be Near Me” and Haircut 100’s “Love Plus One” and “Fantastic Day.”
All three acts have gone on to other successes, but this tour brings together the songs and sounds that first brought them to fame.
