Huey and the New Yorkers hit the road in March 2013 playing intimate venues across the UK and beyond. The Fun Lovin’ Criminals frontman and award winning BBC Radio DJ Huey Morgan announces the ‘MARCH IN YOUR FACE’ tour, the first full UK tour with new band Huey and the New Yorkers since releasing the debut album ‘Say It To My Face’.
The New Yorkers is a virtuosic super group of Huey’s dearest friends from the New York blues scene – with whom Huey would often be found playing impromptu lapsteel guitar in a smoke filled club as ‘The Tangiers Blues Band’ – comprising of Chris Scianni (guitars), King (bass), Pete Levin (keys) and Frank Benbini (also of Fun Lovin’ Criminals fame).
Huey strongly intends to take the important message of servicemen welfare on the road with him; “we hope to visit as many hospitals, rehabilitation centres and places where we can play some music for the troops along the way”. Family man Huey hasn’t forgotten the importance of a good night out either; “A charity called Tickets For Troops will be given tickets to each concert to avail service people a chance for a great night out.”
