The Cureheads, a tribute to The Cure, play The Horn with support from Siouxsie & The Budgiees, a tribute to Siouxsie and the Banshees.
The Cureheads are playing The Horn on Saturday 22 May, with Siouxsie & The Budgiees supporting. The Cureheads bill themselves as the original tribute to The Cure, the self-styled 'Godfathers of Goth', and they've been together since 1990. They celebrated 30 years on the road in 2020, after a world tour marking their 20th anniversary in 2010, and have spent decades recreating the look, sound and atmosphere of The Cure's shows across the UK, Spain, France, Italy, Eastern Europe, South America, Japan and the USA. The set brings together the original hits alongside classic album tracks and B-sides.
Support comes from Siouxsie & The Budgiees, who aim to recreate the sound, shape and fashion-influencing style of Siouxsie and the Banshees. They take their name from the Banshees' drummer 'Budgie' and play originals and covers, with The Cureheads' frontman occasionally joining them on stage — a nod to the period when Robert Smith played guitar for the Banshees.
