You know the songs — Golden BrownStrange Little GirlAlways The SunPeachesNo More HeroesNice & Sleazy — all timeless classics written and sung by Hugh himself. As the creative force behind The Stranglers, Cornwell shaped the sound of an era, writing the tracks that defined British rock through the late ’70s and beyond.

Praised by critics for continuing to push musical boundaries, Hugh remains a captivating live performer:

“Cornwell’s still doing things his way and often with striking results.” – Mojo
“Thunderously tribal garage rock… the ex-Strangler not yet gone soft.” – Uncut

Don’t miss this rare chance to experience a true icon at the top of his game.
