Tom Bailey’s Thompson Twins will co-headline the Totally Tubular Festival with Thomas Dolby and a lineup that includes Modern English, Bow Wow Wow, the Romantics, Tommy Tutone, and the Plimsoul’s Eddie Ortiz. The tour stops at YouTube Theatre in Inglewood on Saturday, June 29, 2024. Bailey and Dolby will play a standalone show at the Fox Performing Arts Center in Riverside on Tuesday, July 2, 2024.
Bailey says he’d more or less concluded he would never return to the music of Thompson Twins, which had hits with songs such as “In The Name of Love,” “Lies,” “Hold Me Now,” and “Doctor! Doctor!” “Like, wow, you know? That’s a muscle that I haven’t used for a while, and yet I’m enjoying it now,” he says.
Q: Festival sets are typically a little shorter. It must be tough to put together a setlist to please everyone.Absolutely. And these days it’s even worse because the management and the promoters look at what’s streaming in different countries, and what positions things got to. So every time you go to a different place it’s like, ‘Ah, well that song has to be included here because it was a big hit.
We’ve been lucky, and one of the reasons was that, I don’t know, there was something about our sound that was a little bit challenging and fresh to people looking for a slight change away from the kind of standard approach to writing pop songs.
