 2009 will see the live return of Coventry’s finest, The Specials. With their previously announced UK tour dates for April and early May quickly selling out, the band have added a one off outdoor headline show, especially for the people of Yorkshire. This open air event, right in the heart of Leeds City Centre will be one of the largest of the Anniversary shows and will see an army of over 7000 2-tone fans skanking away! One of the most important bands in the history of popular music and recognised as one of the greatest live bands the world has ever seen have been the subject of continuous rumours and demands for their reformation since their split in 1981. It would be impossible to overstate the importance of The Specials to the UK music scene. Despite a brief career, the Coventry band lit up the late 70’s like a comet, their melding of punk and ska creating the 2-tone sound that is still today held up as an influence by bands across the world. Now, thirty years since the release of their debut single, ‘Gangsters’, The Specials will return to the stage once more.
