MARTIN McALOON ANNOUNCES STEVE McQUEEN – SLIGHT RETURN UK TOUR

Following the overwhelming response to last year's celebrated Two Wheels 

Good tour, Martin McAloon is hitting the road again this autumn — this time 

bringing Prefab

Sprout's landmark album Steve McQueen to towns, cities and venues that the 

tour didn't reach first time around.

Steve McQueen – Slight Return is a joyful acknowledgement of the demand 

that neverquite went away. "Following the national and international 

success of the Two Wheels

Good tour," says Martin, "it seemed right to acknowledge just how many 

people were asking for more — in places we hadn't yet reached. I'm buoyed 

by the reception these

songs received, and I'm thrilled to be taking the album out on the road one 

last time."

One of the most beloved British records of the 1980s, Steve McQueen will be 

performed in full — and that's just the beginning. As with last year's 

shows, Martin will also be

drawing from the wider Prefab Sprout catalogue, bringing to life as many of 

his brother Paddy's songs as the evening will hold. Last year's repertoire 

stretched to over thirty

songs beyond the album itself.

“An absolute delight and must-see for any Prefab Sprout fan and a 

masterclass in how to survive the music business and remain human. ” Peter 

Freeth - At The barrier.com

These are evenings for fans old and new: intimate, warm, and overflowing 

with some of the most beautifully crafted pop songs this country has ever 

produced.
