-

TEARS for Fears fans in Derby are in for a treat next summer when the 80s duo play a concert in the city.

They will be joined at The Incora County Ground by singer Alison Moyet.

The Tears for Fears show on Tuesday, July 12, to promote their forthcomin­g album The Tipping Point, will come shortly after the cricket ground hosts Michael Bublé.

The band – Curt Smith and Roland Orzabal – have sold more than 30 million albums and can call on a back catalogue containing hits such as Shout, Everybody Wants To Rule The World, Mad World, Sowing The Seeds Of Love, and Woman In

Chains. The Incora County

Ground has become one of the region’s major concert venues, with Elton John and Little Mix having performed there in recent years. Derbyshire County Cricket Club chief executive Ryan Duckett said: “We’re delighted to be welcoming Tears for Fears and Alison Moyet to

The Incora County Ground. This marks another huge step forward for us as a multi-purpose events venue in the heart of Derby and scheduled just a few days after we will have hosted Michael Bublé, it promises to be a great week for music and events in the city.

“After what has been a challengin­g 18 months, it is great we are able to host these type of events again.” The venue recently staged a sold-out Fireworks Night and Fun Fair, and Mr Duckett added: “It’s brilliant for our local community to have huge stars on their doorstep, and we’re looking forward to putting on another great event for the city and wider region to enjoy.”

Tickets for the concert are on sale via authorised ticket merchants AEG Presents, AXS and Ticketmast­er.
