Prolific songwriter Hugh Cornwell, who penned The Stranglers greatest hits, will be performing in Sheffield to plug his latest hit album.

Expect an opening set of prime solo songs, including picks from the latest album Moments of Madness, followed by a storming set of Stranglers classics when Hugh plays at The Leadmill on May 7, 2023.

As leader of The Stranglers, Hugh wrote the band’s most memorable songs including Golden Brown, Strange Little Girl, Always The Sun, Peaches, No More Heroes, Nice & Sleazy. His lyrics to Golden Brown and their multiple meanings is a songwriting masterclass with the song reaching number two in the UK singles charts.
