Cranes are great! I have seen them live i guess three times, it was as a guest band of The Cure

Would really like to go to a concert from them

Hope they will be touring a bit more in Germany

Yes, Alison has a beautiful voice, like an angel

I walk wondering why, the same dream so many times

They are not bad.

Already on CCC we discussed about them pretty much. This ruled MTV 120 Minutes in 1991 for a while.

'Wings Of Joy' and 'Forever' are their best albums imo. Hope to be able and 'see' them again really soon ...somewhere...

One of my favourite bands especially in their first period (up to Loved, included).

But in general, fantastic band. Quite underrated.

Forever and Loved are masterpieces.

I've seen them live 3 times, once as support to the Cure.

Was great to see them supporting again in 2012 even though I was too starstruck to talk to Alison when I had the chance..

I had the pleasure to meet her after a gig of theirs. Lovely, down to earth. A cherished memory of mine.

Cranes are excited to announce they will be playing at the EartH Theatre (a beautiful 1930’s former cinema) in Hackney on Saturday October 14th. The concert, featuring the original line-up of the group (Alison Shaw, Jim Shaw, Mark Francombe and Matt Cope), is to mark the 30th anniversary of their 1993 album ‘Forever’ which they shall perform in full. It will be their first show together since 1995.
