Madness Frontman Suggs Announces 'My Life Story In Words & Music' Shows

Staff Writer

Is it comedy? Is it poetry? Who knows!

More Madness Madness Profile

In town for Bluesfest this year, frontman of English ska legends Madness, Suggs, is filling out his schedule with some one-man-shows this April.

The 'Suggs: My Life Story In Words & Music' shows are partly stand-up, partly-theatre, partly-music and partly-whatever he damn well pleases, with Suggs looking back on his life in a hilarious yet touching set of shows.

With "musical accompaniment and uncalled for interjection from Deano his loyal manservant-cum-pianist" (as the press release states), Suggs will be heading to Sydney, Perth and Melbourne.

Suggs and Madness will also be hitting up Sydney, Perth and Melbourne for some Bluesfest sideshows.
