UB40 will tour Australian this December.
With their distinctive sound and multitude of hits that have topped the charts across the world, the much-loved group are arguably Britain's greatest reggae artists and have survived more than 30 years in the music business, clocking up more than 40 million record sales worldwide with songs like ‘Kingston Town’ and ‘Red, Red Wine’.
The band's initial line-up lasted for 30 years from the band's formation in 1978 until frontman Ali Campbell’s departure in 2008. Since that time, two other founding members (Mickey Virtue and Astro) have also left the band; but the trio of Campbell, Virtue and Astro have since formed UB40 again.
These three founding members are now embarking on a huge world tour playing all the hits and new tracks from their forthcoming album, which will be released later in 2014.
