China Crisis are a band that formed in 1979, Liverpool that achieved chart success throughout the 1980s, having had two albums certified Gold in the UK.

After signing a record deal with Virgin Records, China Crisis released their debut album “Difficult Shapes & Passive Rhythms, Some People Think It’s Fun to Entertain” in December 1982. The album shot up the UK Albums charts to number 21 and was later certified Silver. Their career thereafter would go on to grow exponentially, with their sophomore efforts “Working with Fire and Steel – Possible Pop Songs” going to number 20 in the UK Charts and being certified Gold. “Wishful Thinking” was the biggest song from the album, managing to secure a place at number 9 in the UK charts.

It was “Flaunt the Imperfection” that was released in 1985 that catapulted the band to new levels of success making it to number 9 in the UK Albums charts. The album featured singles such as “Black Man Ray” which went to number 14 in the UK Chart and “King in a Catholic Style” which went to number 19 in the UK.

China Crisis followed their previous success by working with producers Clive Langer and Alan Winstanley, on their album “What Price Paradise” which was later released in 1986. The album featured the song “Arizona Sky” which was the first single release from the band. It was the song “Best Kept Secret” that went to number 36 in the UK Singles Chart. Their following album “Diary of a Hollow Horse” released in 1989 was the fifth studio album by the band, unfortunately, it didn’t match the commercial success of previous records, but it still managed to achieve number 58 in the UK Albums Chart.

The band made a comeback in the 2000s with many national tours of the UK, including one in 2013.

Live reviews

I had the most beautiful concert experience I can remember while watching China Crisis live for the first time. The beauty in what China Crisis does in their simple precision. They simply write beautiful lyrics and have a knack for coming up with catchy elegant pop music to back it up.

The stage setup was sparse, intentionally, so we as the crowd would focus on the individuals playing the music on stage. The focus at the concert was on the music, not on the theatrics of the actual performers. It was very entrancing, the effect in the darkened theater was akin to having a private performance for each member of the audience.

The music itself was so uplifting and poppy that I instantly fell in love with it. It was pure ear candy. "Wishful Thinking" was a particularly engrossing, you could tell that the band had a real affection for that particular song the way to put their hearts and soul into the performance.

After the initial performance these guys came out for not one but two encores - that's home much they appreciate their fans! Great show, highly recommended that you check them out if they come to an area near you!

Report as inappropriate

Pop/rock quintet China Crisis may have achieved the majority of their commercial success during the 80s yet they have managed to achieve a consistency in their demand mainly due to the commitment to the road. The Liverpudlian refuse to rest on the laurels of hits including 'Black Man Ray' and continued to record and release albums throughout the 90s however that was followed by a notable gap in the process due to lineup alterations and the like.

However in 2015 they return with a fan funded LP titled 'Autumn in the Neighbourhood' and as the whole reason this album exists is down to the fans, it feels like a small token of gratitude that the band heads out to air the new material. They always receive great reaction from the loyal following, especially at their annual Cavern Club performance in their home city of Liverpool. Now the band intermingles newer tracks with the classics including 'African and White' and 'Black Man Ray' which receive huge cheers from the baying masses. It is clear people hold the music of China Crisis dearly to them and this mutual respect from band and fan is a really fantastic thing to see.

I can not begin to express the joy of having China Crisis play East Coast shows. Dec 7: Iridium, NYC, Dec 8: Cafe Nine, New Haven, CT, Dec 9: Lighthouse, Glen Cove, NY & Dec 10: The Saint, Asbury Park, NJ.

From the 3 new songs to the hits off their first

2 Albums to the Walter Becker tribute, it was non-stop fan appreciation for an underrated 80's band still making music that matters. Eddies hair

China Crisis were very entertaining as support for Howard Jones, Gary can be relied upon to come up with a wisecrack or two and is always very funny. Musically wise they gave a very good performance playing all the hits in their 40 minute slot. I just love their down to earth way and enthusiasm for the stage. Could watch them all day. Icing on the cake was bumping into Eddie when leaving the venue who was as friendly and approachable as always. Top men and a top band. Fantastic as always !

This band get better Each time I go to see them. The band offered the crowd background to their success which was very amusing and well delivered. Musically and vocally they were excellent and the addition of the live saxophonist really added to their already wonderful music ability. The keyboard player particularly really made the whole sound come together. Thanks Gaz, Eddies and the rest great value no wonder you want to increase the ticket sales ha ha, wort every penny, thank you. Eamon

Another fantastic gig by superb artists who really know how to entertain a crowd. The Kirby banter between tracks is so personal with their audience you go away each time like you have been with your mates. Jack on synth is terrific as if he has been with them forever. Erik the session saxophonist brought a real depth to the tracks love to see him with them in the future. Small venues are great and Backstage at the Green in Kinross was perfect. Roll on December for Glasgow.

All the classics and some new stuff from their latest album

Fantastic Band Great Venue and a crowd on fire. China Crisis never fail to deliver the banter is so funny and the interaction with the fans is superb sometimes you wonder if you are there for the music or banter. Music is just brilliant and the classics like Black Man Ray and Christian never fail to please. Thanks guys for a superb evening.

Wow, what an evening, I loved the venue and Gary, Eddie and the boys were brilliant. The song took me back to younger days and along with Gary's humour inbetween tracks was legendary. Highly recommended and will definitely be going somewhere to see them again

China Crisis are an English pop/rock band. They formed in 1979 in Kirkby, near Liverpool, Merseyside with a core of vocalist/keyboardist Gary Daly and guitarist Eddie Lundon. Their output was pop music similar in style to that of New Wave but with strong similarities to the post-punk movement of the early 1980s, namely inclusion of a broader range of musical influences and occasional flirtation with political commentary. Throughout their career, China Crisis has seen moderate success in the United Kingdom with ten hit singles between August 1982 and January 1987 and six albums, as well as commercial success in Western Europe, Australia and the Americas.

Bandcamp

Inspired by such bands as The Cure, The Jesus and Mary Chain and Killing Joke, in 1985 Jeff Pawson, Peter Burns, Gary Economy and Dave Goodman formed The Gathering. Three years later the group disbanded. Inspired by the resurgence of the Post Punk, New Wave and the 80’s music movement, they reformed in 2018, and were signed by German label Cold Transmission Music.

2022 saw the release of Parade, a collection of the bands Love Songs and Night Light Ep’s plus two new tracks all produced by Jason Corbett of ACTORS.

CHINA CRISIS

Doors: 7:30 pm   show: 8:00 pm.

The early 1980’s heralded a second Liverpool-based “ Merseybeat “ responsible for producing not just new wave legends OMD, but also the diverse likes of Echo and the Bunnymen, Teardrop Explodes, A Flock of Seagulls and Frankie Goes to Hollywood. Amongst these lauded Merseyside acts was China Crisis, emerging in 1981 from their native Kirkby as the songwriting duo of vocalist/keyboardist Gary Daly and guitarist / vocalist Eddie Lundon, who over the years have been accompanied by a gifted and creative but ever-mutable group of musicians both on stage and in their recordings. Citing influences as varied as Davie Bowie, Stevie Wonder and Eric Satie, it’s not entirely surprising that their sound was distinctive amongst their peers, often combining elements of jazz, reggae, country and other styles with their own unique melodies and harmonies. With their philosophy that “the song is the most important thing”, China Crisis didn’t just stretch the creative limits of the technology of the time, but incorporated horns, strings, woodwinds, pedal steel, and did whatever they sensed would serve to create the best possible outcome for a given song. The result of their effort was a clearly identifiable China Crisis sound that stood out from the crowd and garnered the band eleven UK Top 50 singles and three UK Top 40 albums, as well as commercial success in Western Europe, Australia and the Americas.

That the China Crisis sound is enduring is demonstrable well into the 21st Century, not just through the continued fidelity of their longtime fans but the fact that a whole new generation of musicians and listeners are becoming China Crisis devotees. In 2016 Gary and Eddie released Autumn in the Neignbourhood , the seventh China Crisis studio album, to great acclaim via the fan-funded PledgeMusic marketplace, a work referred to as at once “adventurous and contemporary” and “intimate”, and a return to the band’s “heady” songwriting strengths. That same year the band were approached by Sir Robin Millar to participate in a special compilation album, 80’s Re:Covered (featuring top 80’s artists covering some of their own favourite songs from earlier decades), contributing a cover of the Carole King classic “It’s Too Late” performed in the style of their own hit “Christian”. Meanwhile China Crisis classics have been sampled into modern singles by the likes of French Montana and Action Bronson, and the band’s “Wall of God” was included in the hit film Gone Girl , all introducing their music to a whole new audience. The band have undertaken extensive touring to support these endeavours, selling out China Crisis headline shows throughout the UK as well as in the US, Canada, Holland, the Phillipines and elsewhere, holding special events such as their performance of “Flaunt the Imperfection Live” at Liverpool’s Epstein Theatre in honor of the 30th anniversary of the album of the same name, and participated in multiple-headliner tours with the likes of Howard Jones, Midge Ure and Tom Bailey of the Thompson Twins.

2022 is a very special year for the band as they undertake touring the globe celebrating 4 decades of making music. China Crisis kicked off their 40th Anniversary Tour with a sold-out hometown show in the world-renown Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Music Hall with a 16 piece band, filming the unique performance for a very special “Live” DVD/CD release later in the year. After taking the Tour throughout the United Kingdom for the first half of the year, the band plan to head to the US for dates in the early summer, and will wrap up the year with shows around Australia and New Zealand. Fans can be on the lookout for more material from the studio before long as well!
