The Fugess Stronger Than Ever!
(Monday November 07, 2005 12:03 AM)
The Fugees have announced details of a new UK live show, as the band prepare to return to the music world after an absence of almost ten years.
Last month, Lauryn Hill, Wyclef Jean and Prakazrel Michel announced plans to reform the group, some nine years after the release of "The Score", which remains hip hop's biggest-selling album of all time.
The group recently announced details of a full European tour, including two shows in the UK. They have now added a third date in England, at the Hammersmith Apollo on November 25.
Speaking to a UK newspaper this weekend, Wyclef Jean said he is expecting The Fugees to remain as powerful a musical and political force as they were when the band imploded.
"Tell all my people in England...to bring out all their whistles and their foghorns. The Fugees are never orthodox - we're three very strong characters, musically, spiritually, intellectually," he told The Observer.
"And everything we've been through has just made us stronger. We've all been travelling, seeing the world, and we've got a lot to talk about. Musically, you can expect reggae, R&B, rock."
He concluded: "We're naturally political; we don't have to try to be that way."
The band's European tour calls at:
November 2005
25 Hammersmith Apollo, London, UK
30 Stadthalle in Vienna, Austria
December
01 Hartwell Areena in Helsinki, Finland
03 Hovet, Stockholm, Sweden
04 Oslo Spektrum, Oslo, Norway
06 Color Line Arena, Hamburg, Germany
10 Milano Sabato, Milan, Italy
12 Bercy Arena, Paris, France
13 M.E.N. Arena, Manchester, UK
14 Hammersmith Apollo, London, UK
19 Kolnarena, Cologne, Germany
20 Hallenstadion Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland
A currently untitled new album from The Fugees is understood to be ready for release early in 2006 and will be preceded by a single, expected to be "Take It Easy".
