Kiss Kiss Play Summer 2019

Recognised by fans and fellow recording artists, as one of the World's most influential and best ever guitarists. This tribute is frequently confirmed when Hank regularly features high on the polls that determine the greatest guitarists of all time. Initially known as the lead guitarist of The Shadows, the band that evolved to become the UK's biggest ever selling instrumental group, Hank Marvin defined the sound of a generation. Hank was the very first guitarist in the UK to own an iconic Fender Stratocaster - when Cliff Richard imported the guitar from the US exclusively for Hank to play. As a solo Artist, Hank Marvin has released 16 albums, with Top 20 albums spanning almost 50 years; 1969-2017 (to date), in a long and successful career lasting more than 60 years.

Rising from the ashes of the legendary British post-punk unit Joy Division, New Order triumphed over tragedy to emerge as one of the most acclaimed bands of the 1980s; embracing the electronic textures and disco rhythms of the underground club culture many years in advance of its contemporaries, the group's pioneering fusion of new wave aesthetics and dance music successfully bridged the gap between the two worlds, creating a distinctively thoughtful and oblique brand of synth pop appealing equally to the mind, body, and soul.
