The Blow Monkeys (UK) to tour Australia for the first time: May 2025.
Presented by Gerrard Allman Events.
The Blow Monkeys are in rarefied company with a career spanning over 40 years. Always making new music, always stretching their own musical boundaries, from “jazz punk” to a more soulful, jazzy style and an ever-increasing adoption of dance music, The Blow Monkeys experienced worldwide hits with classics such as “Digging Your Scene” and “It Doesn’t Have To Be This Way”, becoming household names and epitomising the glamour of mid-80s pop at its most graceful and sophisticated.
But there was always so much more going on with these soulful troubadours beyond their stylish veneer. The band’s relentless desire to move forward, to collaborate, to be socially engaged and to have something to contribute saw them working with people as varied as Curtis Mayfield, Paul Weller, Cheb Khaled and even Jamaican Toaster EEK-a-Mouse.
