Dexys

Ahead of their much-anticipated appearance at this year’s Glastonbury Festival, Dexys (formerly Dexys Midnight Runners) make a welcome return to the midlands to headline Coventry Kasbah on Wed 25th June 2014.

The band will play a slightly edited version of their acclaimed ‘One Day I’m Going to Soar’ show, plus a few Dexys favourites. To date, the show has been a remarkable critical success wherever it has been performed, most notably during a two week run at The Duke Of Yorks in the heart of London’s Theatreland.

“Dexys draw on an epic band history on a level with The Smiths and The Clash. On the first night of nine at this West End theatre, they play for over two hours, and feel like they’re just getting started” - The Independent *****

“The practise of playing albums in their entirety like this is traditionally reserved for a band revisiting a classic album, not launching a new one. The high-stakes drama and the sheer confidence in the album’s songs felt like there was no other logical way to do it. The stuff of brilliance itself” - Uncut
