About this concert
50 ans d’existence et toujours aussi mythiques (et provocateurs !), The Stranglers feront trembler les murs du Tube à Seignosse samedi 13 juillet prochain !Mise en vente mercredi 24 avril à 10hFormés en 1974, The Stranglers puisent leur attitude provocatrice dans le style le plus pure du punk. En créant un son qui leur est propre et reconnaissable entre tous, les Britanniques ont réussi à devenir l’un des groupes les plus influents de cette époque et encore maintenant. Surtout quand on sait que leurs 3 premiers albums Rattus Norvegicus, No More Heroes et Black and White sont sortis en l’espace de seulement 13 mois, ponctués de tubes comme Peaches, No More Heroes et Walk On By. Plus tard c’est Always The Sun, Strange Little Girl et Golden Brown qui feront sensation.En 2019, Dark Matter, leur 19e album, atteint directement la 4e place des charts anglais. En intégrant des éléments électro et rock alternatif, cet opus montre que le groupe sait innover et repousser ses limites, même après 50 ans de carrière !Tout mineur doit être obligatoirement accompagné d'une personne majeure et responsable.

The Stranglers Biography
The Stranglers are an English rock music group, formed on September 11, 1974 in Guildford, Surrey. They were originally called The Guildford Stranglers and operated from an off-licence in the town. They also based themselves in the nearby village of Chiddingfold for a while.
Original personnel were singer/guitarist Hugh Cornwell (from kentish town, london), keyboardist/guitarist Hans Warmling (from Sweden, replaced within two years by brighton-born keyboardist Dave Greenfield), london-born bass guitarist Jean-Jacques Burnel and drummer Jet Black (a.k.a. Brian Duffy), a native of ilford, essex.
They began as a sinister sounding, hard-edged pub rock group, but eventually branched out to explore other styles of music. The Stranglers were, beginning in 1976, tangentially associated with punk rock, due in part to their opening for Ramones' first British tour. The Stranglers were also associated with new wave music as well as gothic rock, but their idiosyncratic approach never fit completely within a musical genre.
In August 1990, founding member Cornwell left the band to pursue a solo career. In his autobiography, Cornwell states that he felt the band was a spent force creatively, and cited various examples of his increasingly acrimonious relationship with his fellow band-members, particularly Burnel. The remaining members recruited two replacements, including John Ellis, who had opened for the band in the 1970s as a member of The Vibrators, and singer Paul Roberts.
Interest in The Stranglers resurfaced when, in 2001, singer Tori Amos covered their song "Strange Little Girl" and titled the album it was featured on Strange Little Girls. "Golden Brown" was also used in the hit film Snatch by film director Guy Ritchie and extensively in the Australian film He Died With A Felafel In His Hand. Their hit "No More Heroes" was covered by Violent Femmes and used for the film Mystery Men. "Peaches", finally, also appears prominently in another British movie, Sexy Beast by director Jonathan Glazer.
The Stranglers had a critical and popular renaissance in 2004 (together with their first top 40 hit for 14 years - "Big Thing Coming") with the acclaimed Norfolk Coast album and a subsequent sell-out tour. The follow-up album, Suite XVI, was released in September 2006 (the title is a pun on "Sweet 16" and also a reference to the fact that it is the band's 16th studio album).
