Andy Bell (of Erasure) to Tour North America, including shows in NYC and Red Bank

(RED BANK, NJ) -- After hugely successful tours of the UK and Europe, Andy Bell will be embarking on his first ever solo tour of North America. His album, Ten Crowns, released in May of this year, marked a magisterial moment in his forty-year career, and reconfirms that he is one of the great pop vocalists of our time. Travelling into new dimensions and possibilities with gospel in his heart and dance in his soul clearly suits him. Locally, the tour comes to the Gramercy Theatre in NYC for shows October 23-25 and The Vogel in Red Bank on October 31, 2025.
