An Evening of Music and Conversation 

You may have encountered the dynamic personality of Huey Morgan in many ways. Frontman, radio and television broadcaster, author and DJ, Huey is many things at once.

Best known for the hit record Scooby Snacks, Fun Lovin’ Criminals released 6 albums between 1996 and 2010 and sold over 10 million records. As host of The Huey Show on BBC Radio 6 since 2008, Morgan is a cherished voice on national radio in the UK, where he hosts a mix of Hip Hop, Soul, Punk, Funk, Rock and everything in between to his listeners. 
A charismatic, authentic, passionate, and popular renegade himself, Huey’s groove is infectious. And now he’s heading out on a solo tour – mixing music and chat – so fans can get up close and personal with Huey Morgan – The Fun Lovin' Criminal.

A singer and actor, a TV host and author, a BRIT Award winner and a film star – Toyah has
worn many hats during a remarkable career spanning more than 50 years. 

The
High Priestess of Punk burst onto the scene in 1976 as she forged dual careers as a
musician and actress who featured at The National Theatre and London’s Royal Court. 
Her
role in Quadrophenia made her a household name and soon after she gate-crashed the
charts with It’s A Mystery, I Want To Be Free, and Thunder In The Mountains, as the album,
Anthem, earned a gold disc, and BRIT Award Best Female as well as a BRIT Nomination for
British Breakthrough Act. She married King Crimson guitarist Robert Fripp in 1986, and she
starred opposite Sir Laurence Olivier and The Who’s Rodger Daltrey, among others.
Acting,
presenting, performing, headlining tours, and releasing 23 studio albums continued her
unique story and now it’s time to reflect. With a new book in the offing, Toyah is hitting the
road for an extensive UK tour in which she’ll sing favourite hits and tell stories from her
remarkable career.
