ADAM ANT - Blueblack Hussar Tour 2012 @ Zappa - Antwerp - B
Adam and the Ants started as part of the burgeoning punk rock movement. His debut as a recording artist was the song "Deutscher Girls", which featured on the film's soundtrack, along with "Plastic Surgery" which was performed in the film itself, and was re-released as a single in 1982. The band toured extensively around the UK, but proved to be unpopular with much of the British music press who disliked their fetishistic lyrics and imagery. Late 1979 saw the release of their début album Dirk Wears White Sox (1979).
Adam approached Malcolm McLaren (the manager of The Sex Pistols) and asked him to manage the band. McLaren subsequently stole the rest of the Ants from under Adam's feet when he introduced the singer Annabella Lwin and began the process of honing Bow Wow Wow for chart success. A new version of Adam and the Ants was formed and the band signed a major label deal with CBS Records and recorded Kings of the Wild Frontier during the summer of 1980. That album was an enormous hit in the United Kingdom and the "Antmania" that ensued put the band at the forefront of the New Romantic movement. The single "Antmusic" went to No. 2 on the U.K. singles chart by December 1980.
In November 1981, Adam & the Ants released another highly successful album, Prince Charming. The album featured two United Kingdom No. 1 singles — "Stand and Deliver" and the title track "Prince Charming" — as well as the No. 3 UK hit "Ant Rap". This trio of singles were promoted by some of the most lavish music videos of the period, and paved the way for Adam Ant's later acting career.
Since 2010 Adam Ant is back with extensive UK & US tours and many sold out shows.
Georgie Girl and her Poussez Posse will be the supporting band!
