ECHO & THE BUNNYMEN IN CONCERT:
Formed in the late-'70s wake of punk's first wave, Echo & the Bunnymen forged a unique fusion of post-punk, new wave, and neo-psychedelia that established them as pioneers of a new direction in British rock. Today the band's moody, sophisticated sound is as compelling as ever, and their spellbinding live shows are the perfect place to experience it in the flesh. Whether brooding frontman Ian McCulloch is belting out classics from seminal 1984 album Ocean Rain or performing new material from 2014's Meteorites, Echo & the Bunnymen never fail to mesmerize with muscular musicianship and intense performances on their unforgettable tours.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Echo & the Bunnymen formed in Liverpool in 1978, taking their name from a list of nonsensical monikers suggested by a friend. The band made their debut in 1979 with "The Pictures on My Wall", released on the now-legendary Mute Records imprint. Their 1980 album debut Crocodiles was a critical and commercial success, cracking the UK Top 20 and setting the stage for the success of sophomore album Heaven Up Here, which reached the Top 10 in 1981. Their chart run continued in 1983 with third album Porcupine, the vessel for hit singles "The Back of Love" and "The Cutter" and predecessor to the band's landmark 1984 album Ocean Rain, widely considered by critics as the pinnacle of their '80s output. After taking a hiatus between 1993-1996 the band reformed with a vengeance, scoring another Top 10 hit with "Nothing Lasts Forever" and delivering a powerful series of performances on tour. With their 12th studio album Meteorites hitting shelves in 2104, Echo & the Bunnymen have fans eagerly awaiting their next live shows.Ā Previously, Echo & the Bunnymen has sold out venues to capacity, like The Fillmore (Minneapolis) and Fox Theater (Oakland).
FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:
"Amazing show. Ian's voice has not changed a bit. The band sounds the same as the first time I heard them. Bravo!"
"The Bunnymen did amazing renditions of their albums. The improvisation on Crocodiles brought back many great live memories of Bunnymen past shows."
"It was an amazing show. The band sounded incredible and Ian was very much a dynamic presence. Two complete albums were played, along with encores, so it was definitely a show to remember."
Amazing experience One of the best echo shows ive seen
I was excited when this show was announced and had been holding a ticket for 5 months, but left very disappointed. The show started 30 minutes late and then there was another 20 minute break after the opening 8 song set. In the span of 90 minutes the band were on stage for about 35. They had a sold out venue and the crowd was mostly dead from all of the delays. The band themselves played great, but Ian's vocals seemed a little off.
Awesome sauce 100% brother, had lots of fun !! The Cutter was my fav yo !! :3c
Great show, Ian's voice struggled a little with the Texas allergies, but his overload of Scouse banter made up for it. Never stop boys....
E&BM are amazing. Loved them since their beginnings. This is the 2nd time Iāve seen them live and their music is always magnetic and mesmerizing. I was super impressed with the opening act Black Tie Dynasty. First time Iāve heard them and Iāve become an instant fan.
The stage was dark and could not see the band. Paid good money to see the band!
The title says it the best. Truly a transcendent show; like being taken back in time. It's an experience I'll never forget.
Echo and the Bunnymen delivered a captivating performance at their recent concert here in Dallas at House of Blues. blending their classic hits with an energy that resonated throughout the venue. From the iconic vocals of Ian McCulloch to the atmospheric guitar riffs from Will Sergeant. the band transported the audience to another realm. With a setlist that pleased both longtime fans and newcomers alike. it was a night filled with nostalgia and sheer musical brilliance.
I wasn't able to enjoy the music. You could barely see the group, lighting was bad and sometimes you couldn't hear the music well. I wish it would have been in a close venue. Too bad.
Echo & The Bunnymen sounded great and definitely worth it!!!
