ECHO & THE BUNNYMEN IN CONCERT:

Formed in the late-'70s wake of punk's first wave, Echo & the Bunnymen forged a unique fusion of post-punk, new wave, and neo-psychedelia that established them as pioneers of a new direction in British rock. Today the band's moody, sophisticated sound is as compelling as ever, and their spellbinding live shows are the perfect place to experience it in the flesh. Whether brooding frontman Ian McCulloch is belting out classics from seminal 1984 album Ocean Rain or performing new material from 2014's Meteorites, Echo & the Bunnymen never fail to mesmerize with muscular musicianship and intense performances on their unforgettable tours.

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

Echo & the Bunnymen formed in Liverpool in 1978, taking their name from a list of nonsensical monikers suggested by a friend. The band made their debut in 1979 with "The Pictures on My Wall", released on the now-legendary Mute Records imprint. Their 1980 album debut Crocodiles was a critical and commercial success, cracking the UK Top 20 and setting the stage for the success of sophomore album Heaven Up Here, which reached the Top 10 in 1981. Their chart run continued in 1983 with third album Porcupine, the vessel for hit singles "The Back of Love" and "The Cutter" and predecessor to the band's landmark 1984 album Ocean Rain, widely considered by critics as the pinnacle of their '80s output. After taking a hiatus between 1993-1996 the band reformed with a vengeance, scoring another Top 10 hit with "Nothing Lasts Forever" and delivering a powerful series of performances on tour. With their 12th studio album Meteorites hitting shelves in 2104, Echo & the Bunnymen have fans eagerly awaiting their next live shows.

FANS WHO BOUGHT TICKETS SAY:

"Amazing show. Ian's voice has not changed a bit. The band sounds the same as the first time I heard them. Bravo!"

"The Bunnymen did amazing renditions of their albums. The improvisation on Crocodiles brought back many great live memories of Bunnymen past shows."

"It was an amazing show. The band sounded incredible and Ian was very much a dynamic presence. Two complete albums were played, along with encores, so it was definitely a show to remember."

    40 ans de bonne musique

    by Steffe on 2022-09-16Théâtre Corona - Montreal

    Le théâtre Corona est une belle salle avec un joli cachet d'une autre époque. Les sièges au balcon sont inconfortables et l'espace entre les sièges insuffisant. Une Budweiser à 9 $... Sérieusement? Si au moins, il s'agissait d'une bière autre chose que très quelconque. Echo And The Bunnymen a offert une bonne performance, mais pas mémorable. Le registre du chanteur est considérablement diminué. Les musiciens de scène étaient installés à l'écart du côté cour de la scène. Je comprends qu'ils ne font pas officiellement partie des Bunnymen, mais cela donnait l'impression qu'ils étaient des quantités négligeables.

    Amazing

    by Fevista on 2022-09-15Théâtre Corona - Montreal

    My first time at the Corona Theater, a really great place to catch a show by one of your favorite bands. It was an excellent show, Ian McCulloch (vocals) captivated the audience with his deep voice and Will Sergeant with his talent. It was great to be able to hear the successes and know that they will still be able to continue for a few more seasons. I was upset that I didn't have souvenirs like t-shirts.

    Expected better

    by CM on 2022-09-15Théâtre Corona - Montreal

    Unfortunately the day was not Ian’s best. Seemed like he was reaching at times with glimpses of vocal strength that packed a punch. The band was great! Good reminiscing about the past but would have had a better sound experience in the living room. Maybe it was where we were seated in the concert hall (balc).

    Very disappointing concert

    by Laurence on 2022-09-15Théâtre Corona - Montreal

    Good opening act, at least one band out of the 2 was happy to be there. As to Echo, that is Ian the singer, it’s time to retire. Nobody wants to pay 66$ To watch a tired singer deliver 16 songs seated on a bar stool. It was pretty obvious that he’d rather be home sipping his hot milk with honey!

    Same as always

    by Mikey K on 2022-09-15Théâtre Corona - Montreal

    Mac was a heavy load, Will was graceful. I go every time and most likely will next time again!

    by Ardasnailz on 2017-08-11Burton Cummings Theatre - Winnipeg

    Like this group from my youth...not one of my overall favourite groups but when I found them coming to Winnipeg... I knew I wanted to go. In short...great night... forgot how much I liked them.... songs were great and the atmosphere built as the night went on... only downside...couldn't understand the scouse git...!!!... still a great night though.

    Echo & the Bunnymen still and forever ROCK!!!!!

    by LuluMoose on 2017-08-11Burton Cummings Theatre - Winnipeg

    Ian McCulloch still has his voice and badass attitude and it made for a fantastic show. Saw them 35 years ago and finally again!! Only difference is more great musical material and we are all a bit older! I recaptured my youth and my angst! Danced and sang along for the whole show!

    Echo and the Bunnymen were brief

    by Canuckruck on 2017-08-08Union Hall - Edmonton

    This was a really great show musically but very very short under an hour.......only one song encore, and didn't finish the printed set list. If this is a bucket list must do....go see them. If you've crossed that off if your list you might consider passing on this tour

    Brilliant

    by vagrant385 on 2017-08-08Union Hall - Edmonton

    What can I say. E&B passed me unnoticed in the 80's I don't know why that was. In the U.K. They seemed to have been just quietly getting on with making amazing tunes and the UK being some dominated by the charts they were missed. I got into them some 8 years ago and thank god. The performance was outstanding. Ian's vocals were so strong and distinctive. While Will played some amazing guitar whilst pulling off the relaxed dad look. I can't wait to see them again.
