Sananda Maitreya Announces First UK Tour In 23 Years
Following his triumphant performance at Love Supreme Festival in 2024, this will be Sananda’s first UK headline tour in 23 years. Sananda and his band, The Sugar Plum Pharaohs, will be performing songs from his iconic debut album ‘Introducing the Hardline’ through to his most recent work ‘The Pegasus Project: Pegasus & The Swan’ spanning the full arc of his extraordinary career.
The artist, composer, arranger, producer, multi-instrumentalist, entrepreneur and Post Millennium Rocker rose to fame in 1987 with his debut album, the GRAMMY Award-winning Introducing The Hardline, which debuted at number 1 in the UK charts and featured the international smash hit singles ‘Sign Your Name’, ‘Wishing Well’ and ‘If You Let Me Stay’.

Speaking about his long-awaited return to the UK stage Sananda said“Why now? I was waiting for the Midnight Hour, & it’s now 5 minutes to midnight. We aim to blur the hours & transport our sweaty bodies to a superimposed electric glow, an orgasm of sonic surrender, & a peek behind the seductive shadowy curtains of the Moon’s Magnetic Magic.
“Coming up, we never played clubs enough. We matured too fast commercially & outgrew the clubs physically, but never sentimentally. So, we are very eager to return in this tinderbox atmosphere, where Rock vibrates truest & best, nurtured passionately while nestled in the blessed bosoms of those with whom we are excited to share this unique experience, because after we are done with these 9 shows, we will more than likely never again encounter one another in such an intimate exchange of physical & spiritual proximity. WE WANT YOU TO SAY THAT ‘YOU WERE THERE’ So, Come One, & Come All. After all, HAVEN’T WE WAITED LONG ENOUGH?”
Sananda Maitreya should feel proud of both the mesmerising journey his music has taken since Introducing The Hardline brought him to an unsuspecting world in 1987, and of the magical, mystical, freewheeling adventures he now has in music.
He presents his music as Post Millennium Rock; its main elements are heart and soul, its nature is passion, courage and curiosity and it acknowledges no rules but the goal to lead the listener back to his heart, to provoke his mind and re-approach him to his true feelings. His music is free of restrictions and marketing pressures. It is a music that combines all the genres that the artist loved since his childhood: opera, country, classical, jazz, blues, gospel, pop, reggae as well as rock.
Few musicians give more to the game or are plainly having as much fun playing it than Sananda Maitreya.

Gay rights were hard fought for and hard won. Male homosexuality was not decriminalised in England until 1967. In many countries Lesbianism and Homosexuality remain illegal, and Lesbians are persecuted, sometimes murdered. Even though the fight for rights in this country was ultimately successful, that success is incredibly recent, and cannot be taken for granted.
