Hurts: The Desire Tour 2018 Live in Shanghai

Date: Jan 31 - 8 pm

Venue: Bandai Namco Shanghai Base Dream Hall

Price: 380 yuan

Hurts are an English synth-pop duo formed in 2009, consisting of synthesist Adam Anderson and singer Theo Hutchcraft. While the first two Hurts albums in particular were bathed in a dense, gothic atmosphere, the third album Surrender saw the band branch out into new and distinctive territories. This theme continues throughout their new album, Desire, with songs like "Chaperone", "People Like Us" and the infectious second single "Ready To Go" showing a more focused band than ever before. Following their triumphant career start in 2010 with their debut album Happiness and breakthrough single "Wonderful Life," Theo Hutchcraft and Adam Anderson then released two more albums - Exile (2013) and Surrender (2015) - which spawned many international hit singles (including "Some Kind of Heaven" and "Nothing Will Be Bigger Than Us") and airplay hits, while their concerts were hailed as the most innovative live events in recent years.
