MIDGE Ure is set to perform in Bournemouth this November as part of a UK-wide tour.

The announcement follows the music veteran's sold-out show at the Royal Albert Hall, which honoured his 70th birthday.

The forthcoming 23-date Catalogue tour, which kicks off this November, will continue his music career celebration.

Mr Ure said: "I performed live long before I was ever allowed anywhere near a recording studio and as much as I love spending time writing and recording, live music remains my first love.

"This Catalogue tour will allow me to not only play a wide selection of hits from my past but perform some of the most requested favourites.

"Revisiting these moments from my musical life is something I am really looking forward to sharing."

Mr Ure, who has enjoyed an exceptional career, scooping Ivor Novello, Grammy and BASCAP awards and numerous gold and platinum records, will revisit hit tracks on the tour, as well as some rarely-heard numbers.

The musician is best known for his work with Ultravox and Visage, and well as his production on Band Aid’s charity single Do They Know It’s Christmas?.

Mr Ure will perform at the Bournemouth Pavilion on November 15.
