Synthpop pioneers Erasure are back with Tomorrow’s World, the band’s first album in more than four years.
The new album is releases in autumn 2011 and is produced by one of the dance scene’s most exciting new talents, Frankmusik.
Tomorrow’s World was written in New York, London, and at Vince Clarke’s cabin studio in Maine following a short break, which found Andy Bell recording and releasing his second solo album Non Stop, and Vince Clarke reuniting with former Yazoo partner Alison Moyet for a recent tour.
It was recorded in Maine, London and Los Angeles between January and June 2011, with Vince using his vintage collection of analog synths for the final touch. The end result is a collection of electronic songs that sound totally contemporary and classic at the same time. All songs are written by Bell and Clarke.
After Erasure’s return to the stage for Short Circuit presents Mute at the Roundhouse, a one-off performance which saw Vince Clarke perform with very special guests Alison Moyet and Feargal Sharkey, Erasure recently embarked on their Total Pop! Tour a series of dates for summer 2011 playing their hits as part of Forestry Commission Live Music, where acts perform in spectacular woodland locations across the country.
The band have also confirmed a show at Guilfest on 17 July and a US tour.
