Alison Moyet

Alison Moyet plays Bradford Live on 13 November 2026 in Bradford. A defining voice of British pop, she first emerged from Basildon with Yazoo alongside Vince Clarke, shaping early‑80s synth‑pop on Upstairs at Eric’s and You and Me Both. Solo, she carved a path where electronic textures, soul inflections and blues undertones meet a rich contralto, from Alf and Raindancing through the more rough‑edged Hoodoo and Essex. After a quieter spell, she shifted gears with Hometime, explored orchestral reinterpretations on Voice, and leaned into songwriter contours on The Turn. More recently, The Minutes and Other, crafted with producer Guy Sigsworth, distilled a darker, stripped electronic pop that suits her timbre and phrasing.

On stage, Moyet draws from this wide catalogue, moving between synth‑driven cuts and more organic arrangements, letting the grain of her voice carry the melodies. The set navigates early Yazoo foundations and later solo material without nostalgia, focusing on songcraft, pulse and space. A concert grounded in precision and presence, built for listeners who like pop that keeps its edge while staying close to the song.
