A new orchestral tribute act is bringing the music of an 80s icon back to Glasgow after Stranger Things gave her a number one hit for the first time in 44 years.

Classically Kate Bush, a UK concert tour that reimagines the iconic singer-songwriter’s work in a full orchestral setting, will visit the Pavilion Theatre in Glasgow on April 8 as part of its newly announced 2027 tour.

The show, performed by The Hounds of Love and an 18-piece orchestra, promises to deliver a powerful live experience.

Audiences can expect to hear classics such as Wuthering Heights, Babooshka, Cloudbusting, Hounds of Love, and Running Up That Hill (A Deal with God) reinterpreted with orchestral arrangements.

The show is described as a celebration of Bush’s experimental and classical influences, honouring her legacy.

Bush, who remains an elusive figure in the music world, has rarely performed live, making opportunities to experience her songs in concert especially meaningful for audiences.

The 2027 tour will also include dates in Aberdeen and Dunfermline on April 9 and 10, respectively, before continuing to Stockton, Dartford, Coventry, and beyond.

Tickets go on sale at 10am on Friday, July 17.
