NEW wave band China Crisis will be bringing their Warped 2026 tour to Skipton in November.
The band, who were formed in 1979 in Kirby, Liverpool, will take the audience on a journey through more than four decades of 'innovative pop brilliance'.
Since their early 80s breakthrough from Liverpool's renowned music scene, Gary Daly and Eddie Lundon have distinguished themselves with a sound that is both instantly recognisable and constantly evolving.
Their sophisticated yet irresistibly catchy style of pop – blending everything from synths to soul and unexpected textures – produced hits like ‘Wishful Thinking’, ‘African and White’, and ‘Arizona Sky’.
Today, they continue to push forward with fresh projects that highlight their adventurous songwriting and professional artistry.
China Crisis are at Skipton Town Hall on Thursday, November 19.
For the music of The Eagles, a night not to be missed is Desperadoes: The Music and Legacy of The Eagles on Saturday, November 7.
"Prepare to be transported back to the golden era of classic West Coast rock as Desperados faithfully captures the essence and spirit of Eagles", says a spokesperson for Skipton Town Hall.
"Their impeccable harmonies, flawless instrumentation, and passion for their craft make their show one not to be missed."

Angry Boater, of Channel 4's Narrow Escapes, will bring his show to Skipton on Friday, November 13.
In 2000, Angry Boater Joel Sanders performed a run of shows in Las Vegas; 26 years on and he has finally made it to Skipton.
Joel was recently discovered by Channel 4, becoming an instant hit on the popular ‘Narrow Escapes’ series.
The programme documented Joel’s adventures including, in the Season 2 finale, his narrowboat sea cruise in the middle of the night.
"Whether you’re a boater, boat-curious or you can imagine nothing worse, this is an evening of comedy and stories you’ll remember for years to come," says Skipton Town Hall.
"As well as delving into the joys, perils and madness of a life afloat with hypertension, Joel also lifts the lid on several of his celebrity encounters - including an awkward towpath encounter with a disgraced Hollywood A-Lister."
