Cloudbusting - The Music of Kate Bush

Cloudbusting are playing The Fire Station on Friday 13 November, a tribute to the music of Kate Bush. The set pulls from her hits, with Wuthering Heights, Hounds of Love, Babooshka, This Woman's Work and Running Up That Hill all on the list. It's a two-hour stage production built around live vocals, musicianship and back-projection visuals, rather than just a band on stage.

There's a bit of history behind the name, too. Cloudbusting describe themselves as the longest-running and most universally celebrated tribute to Kate Bush, with TV appearances and live performances across the UK and Europe. They're the only band in the world to have performed her music with her original bass player and long-standing sound engineer Del Palmer, and with drummer and percussionist Preston Heyman, who played on Tour Of Life, Never For Ever and The Dreaming. They've also shared the stage with Stewart Avon-Arnold, Kate's co-choreographer and dance partner from her most iconic videos. It's a fair bit of connection to the original recordings and the way the songs were performed back then.

One of the songs they cover, Running Up That Hill, became a worldwide number one 37 years after its original release, so it's a familiar one even if you've never followed Kate Bush's work. The rest of the set reaches back across her career, from the early days of Wuthering Heights to the later material.

It starts at 7:30pm at The Fire Station, High Street West, SR1 3HA, and tickets are £26.
