We have good news for you. Elan and the Band have just finished shooting the video for the new single which is titled "SHINE"!. The new video was directed by renowned director David "Leche" Ruiz, one of Mexico's most prolific music video directors. "Leche" directed the smash hit videos for "Midnight", "Hideaway" and "They Came From The City". "It was very exciting to work again with 'Leche', he is an amazing director and I was looking forward to doing another video with him." Said Elan. We have learned that this NEW video will be released through all major video networks but we are still awaiting the Abbywho Records' announcement of the release date. This will be Elan's eleventh video release!

"SANS PAREIL"

We would like to announce that this week's Sans Pareil choice by Elan has been "Van Morrison".

"Van Morrison, a timeless songwriter, is definitely one of rock and roll's first lyricists unafraid to expose his spiritual and poetical insight." said Elan.

Yazoo - Reconnected - June 2008
Vince Clarke and Alison Moyet to reunite for first UK shows in 25 years
4 disc box set In Your Room - Released in May

Yazoo - Vince Clarke & Alison Moyet - have announced that they will reunite for the first time in over 25 years for Reconnected, a UK tour in June, starting in Glasgow on the 4th and culminating in a headline show at London's Hammersmith Apollo on the 18th. Tickets are available from 1st February direct from the venue or online at www.ticketmaster.co.uk / www.gigsandtours.com / www.livenation.co.uk

The tour is preceded by In Your Room, a 4 disc box set which includes remasters and 5.1 mixes of both Yazoo's classic albums 'Upstairs At Eric's' and 'You And Me Both', b-sides and remixes and a DVD featuring a new short film containing exclusive new interviews with Vince Clarke and Alison Moyet and the promo videos for Don't Go, The Other Side Of Love, Nobody's Diary, Situation (1990) and Only You (1999).

The joyous, unlikely coming together of Vince Clarke, who had just left Depeche Mode, and Alison Moyet lasted for only 2 albums, saw them performing only 24 concerts worldwide, but left an indelible mark on pop. Yazoo released 'Upstairs At Eric's' in July 1982 then parted company just 12 months later on release of the second album 'You And Me Both', which reached Number 1 in the UK.

Vince and Alison have since gone on to have their own successful careers, Vince with Erasure and Alison as a solo performer, both releasing Top 30 critically acclaimed hit albums in 2007 – Erasure with 'Light At The End Of The World’ and Alison Moyet with 'The Turn'. The Reconnected Tour will also see Yazoo perform material from 'You And Me Both' for the very first time as well as pop classics Only You and Don’t Go.

Says Vince Clarke: "It's been really good going back to these songs after such a long while. Many of them have never been played live. I'm looking forward to performing them with Alison for all the fans who've enjoyed our music through the years but never had a chance to see Yazoo in concert"

Says Alison Moyet: ”Playing this material live is not about revision for me, it is about finishing something we started – writing, recording, performing. Three parts of a whole. A salmon cycle. It’s like going home.”
