With Wonderful Life, Theo Hutchcraft and Adam Anderson from Manchester, after having boiled their formula down to a duo, conquered the world in 2010 under the band name Hurts. Then they’ve followed track with a further string of skilfully crafted, sleek, ’80s-inspired synth pop hits. And here they are with their latest release, Surrender, and the funky first single excerpt, Lights. Hurts announce a 24-date European tour – their biggest yet – and they won’t leave out an intimate show at the A, where the band first performed in 2010.
