Haircut One Hundred's Nick Heyward released first solo LP in 18 years, touring

Though he’s best known as frontman for the fabulously sweatered early ’80s pop band Haircut One Hundred, Nick Heyward went on to an acclaimed solo career, including 1993’s excellent and underrated From Monday to Sunday, and 1998’s The Apple Bed (which came out on Creation Records). He hadn’t put out a solo album since The Apple Bed, but that changed with Woodland Echoes, which came out in the UK back in August and gets a US release on November 3. His ability to write literate, effortlessly catchy guitar pop hasn’t diminished at all in the last 18 years. You can check out videos for “Mountaintop” and “Beautiful Morning” — plus videos from previous solo and Haircut One Hundred LPs — below.

Nick is also touring, including two West Coast shows in January, both featuring a slew of ’80s acts like Violent Femmes, Boy George, The Bangles, A Flock of Seagulls, Grandmaster Flash, The Romantics, Dramarama and more. He’ll be on his own headline tour in the UK next year. All tour dates are listed below.
