Vince Clarke & Allison Moyet - collectively known as Yaz (or Yazoo in England). I'm heading to LA tomorrow to see them. They are playing a handful of live shows in the US for the first time in 25 years! They only put out two albums: "Upstairs at Eric's" in 1982 and "You and Me Both" in 1983, but both albums are classic 80's techno. They split after those two discs and Allison continued as a solo artist, while Vince when on to form Erasure with Andy Bell. Erasure is still producing albums (great ones, I might add!) and touring. I've seen them before, but am excited to see Yaz.
I'll be staying in Manhattan Beach for two nights and will try to post some pictures from the road. I'll be stopping to surf on the way down tomorrow, but the swell predictions are essentially saying "flat" so we'll see....
