Midge to perform with the Sinfonia Nord and Todmobil
Todmobile celebrates its 30th year with a celebration concert in Harpa on November 2nd. Todmobile’s special guest for this concert is Midge Ure, a singer and songwriter best known for his groundbreaking work with Ultravox. Also appearing is SinfoniaNord.
Todmobile released their first track in 1988. A year later their first album was released and now, thirty years later, they have released eight studio albums, a string of hit singles and have played countless concerts.
This is Todmobile’s fourth concert where they collaborate with their idols and main musical influences. This concert series started in 2013 when Jon Anderson of YES was their special guest. In 2015 Steve Hackett of Genesis played a concert with Todmobile and a year later Nik Kershaw took to the stage with the band. Now it’s Midge Ure’s turn, one of the 80s most iconic musicians in the UK. Midge recently released the album Orchestrated on which he performs most of his best known songs, accompanied by a symphony orchestra.
Todmobile, SinfoniaNord and Midge Ure will perform a selection of Todmobile’s, Ultravox’s and Midge Ure’s greatest hits on Nov 2nd in the lovely Eldborg auditorium in Reykjavik, Iceland
