In 2014, UB40 featuring Ali Campbell, Astro & Mickey Virtue released a critically acclaimed Top 10 album, ‘Silhouette’, showcasing the outfit’s unique brand of reggae-pop across thirteen tracks. The outfit has plans to release a new studio album later this year.
Since reuniting three years ago, original UB40 founding members Ali Campbell, Astro and Mickey Virtue have developed into a formidable touring outfit. Their world tours have included visits to North and South America, Nigeria, South Africa, Dubai, Europe and Papua New Guinea. Currently in the midst of a sell-out North America and Canada tour, UB40 will land in Australia to deliver their distinctive rootsy musical mélange to audiences around the country.
