    Mission front man to perform in SA

    British rock star and front man, and founder of UK band The Mission, who have had 14 consecutive top-40 UK hits with songs like Butterfly On A Wheel, Lose Myself In You, Like A Hurricane, Like A Child Again, and Severina, Wayne Hussey, has just released his second solo album entitled 'Songs of Candlelight and Razorblades'.

    The album is available now on iTunes and includes the first single and video: Wither On The Vine.

    The new album is backed up by a 50-date European tour and Hussey will also visit South Africa for three exclusive live-and-intimate shows at the famed Barnyard Theatre group, in conjunction with ASP Live.

    Hussey promises that the shows will pretty much follow the form of his recent European tour and will feature songs from his new album, classic and lesser-known Mission songs, as well as a selection of suitably maverick and idiosyncratic cover versions.

    Voice behind the The Awakening

    South Africa-born singer Ashton Nyte, known as the voice behind the band The Awakening, will be the special guest at the opening show of Hussey's Tour, and will make an appearance at the Cape Town show on 11 May. Ashton will perform a 30-minute acoustic set before Hussey takes to the stage for an acoustic set of his own. Ashton will perform songs from his new album "Some Kind Of Satellite" as well as songs from The Awakening.

    The two front men from the hugely successful alternative 80s tribute show: Hey Now, Hey Now Now, David Beretta Owens and Jay Wilton will set the tone for the evening and debut their new single, Listen Close, with a live performance of the song Jay wrote, for the first time.

    Wayne Hussey will appear at the following Barnyard Theatres:

    • Rivonia on 8 and 9 May shows at 8pm; and
    • Cape Town on 11 May at 8pm.

    Ticket prices R300 for all shows.
