CHINA CRISIS Warped Tour 2026 Live @ Computer World / Taunton

China Crisis invite you to step into the next chapter of their story with their Warped 2026 tour, a journey through over four decades of innovative pop brilliance.

Since their early 80’s breakthrough from Liverpool’s renown music scene, Gary Daly and Eddie Lundon have distinguished themselves with a sound that is both instantly recognizable and constantly evolving. Their sophisticated yet irresistibly catchy style of pop - blending everything from synths to soul and unexpected textures - produced beloved hits like 'Wishful Thinking', 'African and White', and 'Arizona Sky', and they continue to push forward with fresh projects that highlight their adventurous songwriting and professional artistry.

The band’s latest works, including their acclaimed 'Autumn in the Neighbourhood' and 'China Greatness' albums, prove their music shines brighter than ever, reaffirming their place as pioneers, innovators, and creators of timeless songs. On stage, China Crisis remain true originals: blending classic songs, new work, and the humor and heart that make every performance unforgettable.

The Warped 2026 tour is not just a celebration of their past—it’s a testament to a band still in full creative stride, which you can see for yourself when the quartet return to Taunton's Computer World Synthpop Club on Saturday 17 October 2026

All tickets include automatic entry to the Computer World 80's synth & new wave disco which begins shortly after the band leaves the stage.
