Former Housemartin and Beautiful South Singer Tours in October.

PAUL HEATON, Beautiful South and Housemartins founder, is set to play a National Tour of Australia this coming October;
performing a Greatest Hits set including songs from both acts, as well as new material....

The warm, mellifluous voice of Paul Heaton often masks the jagged satirical content of his lyrics. From pointed political jabs like The People Who Grinned Themselves to Death to darkly comical love stories such as Something That You Said, Heaton's work with the Housemartins and the Beautiful South has had countless listeners obliviously humming along to his biting wit.

"A national treasure in the 1990s, Paul Heaton's wildly successful combination of satirical and acerbic lyrics over a background of melancholic and lush melodies was a winning formula, critically and commercially." - BBC.co.uk
