Cranes Reunite with Original Lineup for 30th Anniversary of “Forever”

Big news: the original line-up for beloved dream-pop outfit Cranes will reunite for a special one-night performance on Saturday, October 14th, at the historic EartH Theatre in Hackney, London.  This highly-anticipated event marks the 30th anniversary of the band’s critically acclaimed 1993 album, Forever.

Cranes are set to ignite the stage once again in a long-awaited reunion concert featuring Alison Shaw, Jim Shaw, Mark Francombe, and Matt Cope. This marks the first time the quartet has performed together since 1995, promising to be a monumental event for die-hard fans and newcomers alike.

At the heart of the reunion lies Forever, a timeless masterpiece that captured the band’s ethereal style: shoegaze and dream-pop fused with gothic rock elements. The album, released in 1993, received widespread critical acclaim and has since attracted a cult following. Notably, Robert Smith from The Cure is a fan. He even remixed the single “Jewel” from Forever after inviting Cranes to join him on the 1992 Wish tour.

Now, as we approach its 30th anniversary, the Cranes faithful fans will witness the band’s signature sound come to life on stage once again.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to relive the magic of Cranes’ original line-up. Expect to be transported back in time: EartH Theatre, a beautifully restored 1930’s former cinema located in the heart of Hackney, provides the perfect setting for this momentous occasion. With its Art Deco-inspired architecture and intimate atmosphere, the venue will transport fans back to the golden era of Cranes’ music.

Listen to Forever below to get in the mood:

Tickets for this once-in-a-lifetime event are on sale now and available here.

Additionally, Cranes recently announced the release of a new video release of the track Da Da 331 from the band’s upcoming Peel Sessions LP, which should now be available on all your favourite streaming platforms.
