UB40 featuring Ali Campbell is the reggae and pop collective responsible for serving up hits including Red Red Wine and Kingston Town. Formed in the 70s, the band has impressively scored 50 singles in the UK charts throughout its expansive career, not to mention enormous success and acclaim on a global scale including right here in Australia.
With Ali part of a ten-piece touring band, UB40 featuring Ali Campbell are now ready to unleash a formidable live set that contains material spanning over four decades. In remaining true to the authentic reggae spirit that kick-started his music career in the late 1970s, Ali is now celebrating the legacy of his departed bandmate Astro by keeping faith with their original shared ideals. “For me, it's all about advancing reggae,” he says. “I love all kinds of music, but we've always promoted reggae. I've never deviated from that. I'm strictly reggae.”
From Birmingham, UK, the reggae icons recently released the single “We’ll Never Find Another Love”, along with their latest album ‘Unprecedented’. Their legend continues, as UB40 featuring Ali Campbell remain a show-stopping headline act, not to be missed in Melbourne and Perth in Summer 2024.
