Holy Holy, a supergroup dedicated to performing songs from across Bowie’s career, will take to the road for their final tour this September and are set to perform at Newcastle’s O2 City Hall.
The band features Tony Visconti, who played on Bowie’s first two records and produced ten of his albums, and Woody Woodmansey, the drummer from the Spiders from Mars.
Mr Woodmansey said: “Since Holy Holy formed back in 2014, we’ve played to hundreds of thousands of Bowie fans around the world.
“From the audience response to the energy within the band, we’ve shared some truly amazing and unforgettable evenings together.”
The line-up also includes Heaven 17’s Glenn Gregory on lead vocals, guitarists Paul Cuddeford and James Stevenson, Visconti’s daughter Jessica Lee Morgan on 12-string guitar and saxophone, and Janette Mason on piano and keys.
Holy Holy will perform songs spanning Bowie’s career, from his early work through to his final album, Blackstar.
The 12-date tour begins in Glasgow on September 3 and ends in Hull on September 19, with the Newcastle show scheduled for September 17.
Mr Woodmansey said: “We’ve toured the UK, Japan, Europe and the US – and every time the music connects just as powerfully.
“This upcoming tour feels especially meaningful.
“With the V&A Bowie exhibition now open, the recent preservation of Bowie’s legacy through the National Heritage Trust, and the 10th anniversary of David’s untimely passing, it feels like the right moment to come together again and celebrate what this music still means.”
Mr Woodmansey said: “We’re planning a show that truly reflects what Bowie’s music gave to the world – and what it continues to give to all of us.
“We aim to do him proud.
“See you there.”
