The Yazoo Show comes to Umbilo
Durban entertainers, Colin Peddie and Marion Loudon, are presenting a brand-new show at the Rhumbelow Theatre as a tribute to their iconic band Yazoo.
GET out your hair gel and Doc Martins and head to London in 1982 for a tribute to one of the most influential duos in pop history.
Lasting only 18 months, the English pop duo, Yazoo, had a major effect on the pop industry, proving that electronic music could cross over the soul divide.
The studio geek and the larger-than-life blues-soul singers proved to be a match made not just in Essex but in heaven. Their debut album, 1982’s Upstairs At Eric’s, soared to number two in the UK charts. Its follow-up the following year, You And Me Both, went one better.
They produced just two albums, both of which have stood the test of time and still sound as fresh today as they did in the early 80s.
