Leeds Heritage Theatres - City Varieties

One of the world’s greatest music producers – Trevor Horn – is coming to City Varieties as part of an exclusive tour this autumn.

Horn is a bona fide pop legend having worked with everyone from Seal to Frankie Goes to Hollywood, ABC to Yes, Grace Jones to Belle and Sebastian, and Robbie Williams to Pet Shop Boys.

The super producer has been described as “the man who invented the 80s” and he was also responsible for the sound of such bands as Dollar, Malcolm McLaren, t.A.T.u. and countless more, including Hans Zimmer, Marc Almond, Tori Amos, Peter Gabriel, Phil Collins, Tina Turner, Art of Noise, Rod Stewart, and LeAnn Rimes.

After achieving the Number 1 hit Video Killed The Radio Star with his band, The Buggles, Horn became a member of Yes before becoming the most important hit-maker of the 1980s – and beyond. Awards followed – there were four Brits, a 1995 Grammy for Seal’s Kiss From A Rose, a 2010 Ivor Novello for his Outstanding Contribution to British Music, and a CBE.

Following the publication of his best-selling memoir, Adventures In Modern Recording: From ABC to ZTT, Horn is going on the road to talk about his exploits as a music legend.

Horn says: “This will be a very special tour in which I will share some never-heard-before stories from five decades in the music business.”
