It's a mystery why Daniel Takes A Train never hit the big time in the 1980’s. After all, their members had recorded with Tom Robinson, had tea and cakes with T Rex, partied with Paula Yates and The Pet Shop Boys at the 1987 Brits and even stole a set list from The Smiths!
Fate played a hand in the reversal of band’s fortunes when, 30 years after splitting up, they were discovered via an old YouTube video by Germany’s leading indie label who released their first LP.
Now reformed with most of the original band members, they release their first proper studio album: Last Ticket To Tango. Featuring 10 original new tracks which fit seamlessly into the musical landscape of 2020, the band also revisit their earliest musical influences: new wave, soul, ska and 80’s synth pop. And with studio production by Pat Collier (Katrina and The Waves, Primal Scream) Last Ticket to Tango has ‘classic album’ written all over it.
Last Ticket to Tango is available on CD and leading digital music platforms
