The Human League

British synth-pop pioneers The Human League will head to the Yorkshire coast next summer to headline TK Maxx presents Scarborough Open Air Theatre. The Human League will headline on Saturday June 28 and will be joined on the night by Thompson Twins' Tom Bailey and Blancmange.

The Human League led by Philip Oakey, Joanne Catherall and Susan Ann Sulley have shaped the sound of electronic pop for more than four decades and continue to reach a new generation through the innovative sounds and songs they created in the 1980s. Their influence on both music and culture remains undeniable, with timeless anthems like Don't You Want Me, (Keep Feeling) Fascination, Love Action (I Believe in Love) and Mirror Man continuing to resonate with fans worldwide. With nine studio albums, including the multi-platinum DARE, The Human League has sold more than 25 million records worldwide. Their legacy is further solidified by numerous accolades, including a BRIT Award for Best British Breakthrough Act in 1982 and three Ivor Novello Award nominations.

The group has inspired new generations of artists, written some of the all-time classic pop songs, had Number 1 singles and albums across the world and yet, as they look to their fifth decade, they remain fiercely independent and true to their roots. With a legacy approaching 50 years, fans can expect a night of timeless classics and the very best of 80s pop.
