Bio
China Crisis is a British pop/rock group formed in 1979 in Kirkby on Merseyside, with a core band of vocalist/keyboardist Garry Daly and guitarist Eddie Lundon. They've produced pop music similar in style to that of the new romantic movement.
China Crisis hit this country for the first time, on their 40th Anniversary Tour no less, and finally get to fire up the passions of their fans in person. Their album from 1985, Flaunt the Imperfection, gained gold record status first in New Zealand.
The band takes the audience through their catalogue of terrific music and while the hits are coming thick and fast, it is Daly’s commentary about the songs and the history of the band that is fascinating. Whilst on tour with Santana they took a trip into the desert at night that inspired ‘Arizona Sky’
In a recent appearance at City Winery DC, vocalist Gary Daly of UK new wave quartet China Crisis reflected on the band’s early days and how success came quick for the pop upstarts.
UK new wave outfit China Crisis dropped by City Winery recently for their first DC show in more than 30 years, and the band and a small crowd shared a simply marvelous time together.
