Live at Rockpalast

One Thing Leads to Another (Live)

Most other musicians, when they've been working for over half a century, are resting on their laurels, basking in the warm glow of their heritage, accepting the odd Lifetime Achievement Award, playing the odd Greatest Hits tour and concentrating on shifting their back catalogue. But Sparks are not most other musicians. They are utterly unique.

Levels of interest in the work of Sparks - brothers Ron and Russell Mael - are at heights unsurpassed in their 50+ year career, with the ultimate cult band now centre stage in the full beam of the spotlight.

Now into their sixth decade of making music, Sparks have never been more relevant.
