Eighties pop band Haircut 100<\/strong>, best known for songs like \u201c<\/span>Love Plus One<\/span><\/a>\u201d and “<\/span>Favourite Shirts (Boy Meets Girl)<\/span><\/a>,” is getting ready to tour the U.S. with the original lineup for the first time in over 40 years, and frontman Nick Heyward<\/strong> and guitarist Graham Jones<\/strong> are looking forward to the trek.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe best place for us is either on the stage or in the studio when we’re communicating with the audience, when we’ve got that interaction,\u201d Jones tells ABC Audio. \u201cWhat you get back from the audience is the reward for all the effort that we put in.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The band first reunited in 2022. Nick says\u00a0performing with his old bandmates\u00a0has felt very organic, sharing, \u201cI can’t remember it being this good.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Jones\u00a0adds that things are better now because there\u2019s a new \u201clevel of maturity\u201d in the band:\u00a0\u201cI think we’re kind of maybe paying more attention to each other, as opposed to getting caught up or swept up in the moment of being young pop stars.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Jones says he\u2019s\u00a0specifically\u00a0looking forward to playing for U.S. audiences again, because their reaction to the music is much different than that of U.K. fans.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cAmericans seem to tend to listen to the music more than the other aspects. And when we come on stage, play our set and disappear, they go, \u2018Christ, we didn’t realize they were that good,\u2019\u201d Jones notes. Heyward adds with a laugh, \u201cNo, that\u2019s us, we don’t realize we were that good.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Haircut 100 will be the special guest on\u00a0Howard Jones<\/strong>\u00a0and ABC<\/strong>‘s summer tour, which kicks off Aug. 14 in Redmond, Washington. A complete list of dates can be found at <\/span>haircut100.com<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n
