UB40 Red Red Wine Tour

UB40 Red Red Wine Tour

UB40, the iconic reggae band, celebrates its 40th anniversary with a 2018 US tour and the release of their first album in over four years. Featuring hits like ‘Kingston Town’ and ‘Red, Red Wine’, the tour showcases their enduring popularity and musical legacy. Comprising five founding members and long-time additions, UB40’s concert follows the release of their latest studio album due in May 2018, marking a significant milestone in their illustrious career.

Originating from humble beginnings in Birmingham, UB40 emerged from the local music scene with a distinctive blend of reggae and social commentary. Their early years were marked by a commitment to left-wing ideals and a unique sound that resonated with audiences worldwide. Through albums like “Signing Off” and “Present Arms,” they established themselves as pioneers of British reggae, earning acclaim for their authenticity and political relevance.

Over the decades, UB40’s influence has grown, with chart-topping albums, global tours, and collaborations with renowned artists. Their dedication to both music and activism remains unwavering, evident in hits like “One In Ten” and “Red Red Wine,” which have become anthems of social change. As they continue to captivate audiences across the globe, UB40’s legacy as one of the world’s most successful reggae bands endures, transcending boundaries of race, age, and nationality.
