Paul Carrack
A musical legacy that spans five decades is something to celebrate, and when that legacy includes a timeless classic like How Long, the occasion becomes truly remarkable. Paul Carrack, the maestro behind this iconic song, is proud to announce the How Long 50th Anniversary Tour.
In 1974, Paul Carrack was in Ace when he wrote and performed How Long, a song that resonated with audiences worldwide. The track reached No. 3 on the US Billboard Hot 100, and top 20 on the UK Singles Chart. In a 1981 issue of Smash Hits, Phil Collins named the song one of his top 10 favourites, describing it as a classic single.
The How Long 50th Anniversary Tour takes audiences on a journey through Carrack's illustrious career, spanning half a century of extraordinary music. It's a testament to the enduring appeal of How Long and Paul Carrack's exceptional talent.
Carrack's career is filled with iconic songs that have become timeless classics. He lent his exceptional voice to hits such as Tempted by Squeeze, The Living Years and Silent Running by Mike + The Mechanics, and his own solo hit, Don't Shed a Tear.
Paul’s uniquely soulful voice is a must for his millions of fans around the world. Some of the biggest names in music including The Eagles, Diana Ross and Tom Jones have performed his amazing songs and he is constantly in demand as a session keyboardist, having recorded and toured with Elton John, Van Morrison, Roger Waters and BB King, and most recently with Eric Clapton.
Paul Carrack's commitment to his craft and his relentless pursuit of musical excellence remains unwavering. This tour not only celebrates the legend himself but also a remarkable 50 years of unforgettable music.
