Altered Images originated in Glasgow and were part of the 1980s Scottish new wave/post-punk scene. Still led by singer Clare Grogan, the band performs to enthusiastic crowds worldwide to this day!
Clare has worked extensively in music, film, television, theatre and radio for 40+ years. The summer she left school, her band Altered Images were signed to CBS Records, and Clare appeared in the bafta winning comedy Gregory’s Girl directed by Bill Forsyth.
Altered Images quickly had worldwide success, selling millions of records, which topped the charts in several countries. They recorded 3 top 10 albums and had 6 UK top 40 hits – working with legendary producers Martin Rushent, Mike Chapman and Tony Visconti. They were voted best new group at the NME Awards the same year they were invited to play at the Royal Command Performance.
Clare and the band worked closely with Scottish painter David Band, creating original pieces of artwork that were released as special edition prints along with the singles. Clare recently received the Living Legend Award at the Scottish Music Awards. She made her debut at the Royal Albert Hall, where she joined Texas on stage and also teamed up with Sharleen on a track on their album Hi.
Altered Images songs have always had an established audience and, in recent years, a brand new one as well. Clare couldn’t be happier about the opportunity to breathe new life into past songs she wrote and loves, as well as performing new tracks from her album Mascara Streakz in front of enthusiastic crowds.
Clare has started writing for her next album, which she hopes to record later this year. And, as happy birthday turns 45, Clare has recently announced a special UK tour celebrating happy birthday & greatest hits.
