Elegant, quality, pop rock, served up by a musician who made a lasting mark on the soundtrack of the eighties and even today continues to grow artistically.
Spectators who, thirty years ago, listened to songs like Ride Like the Wind, Sailing and Best That You Can Do (the theme tune from the film Arthur) will not want to miss another chance to see this live performance by an artist who helped to define an era with his music and has continued to grow and evolve constantly ever since. In 2014, Cross released Secret Ladder, his fourteenth studio album, featuring impeccable musical arrangements, exceptional guitar-playing skill and an unmistakable voice that younger generations are now beginning to rediscover. The new disc features thirteen songs, mostly written with Cross’s long-time cohort, Rob Meurer, all rock and pop tunes tinged with influences from the legendary Motown sound. Romantic songs like Reverend Blowhard, Wonderland, I Don’t See it Your Way and Simple cannot fail to remind the listener of his classic tracks, demonstrating that Christopher Cross has grown, matured and renewed his musical discourse whilst always remaining faithful to his origins.
