Eight Gigs: Midge Ure
Mon., Jan. 9, 8 p.m., Harlow’s Restaurant & Nightclub, $20-$25
Scottish musician Midge Ure is back to play Harlow’s on a run of dates dubbed “Introduce a Friend to His Music” and will be backed by an electric band. For those unfamiliar with his work in Ultravox, Ure also helped with countless musical ventures, including (but most certainly not limited to) Live 8, Band Aid 20 with Sir Paul McCartney, Live Aid and more. Ure’s songbook will take fans on a journey of his repertoire with Rich Kids, his own solo material, and whatever else fans call out.
