E a pochi giorni dall'inizio del nuovo anno scalpitano anche Dave Stewart e Barbara Gaskin, che con buon anticipo annunciano l'appuntamento londinese del prossimo 27 luglio, nuovamente con l'alleato Beren Matthews e nuovamente al Kings Place. Il concerto si intitola Helios Arise e i biglietti si prenotano già tramite Burning Shed. Scrive Dave: "We'd like to invite our loyal worldwide listeners to join us once again at Kings Place, by far and away the best-sounding auditorium we've encountered in many years of performing. We were touched by the warm reception you gave us in 2022 and 2023, and hope you're able to visit London to see us again this year. We'll be performing a new selection of Stewart / Gaskin songs dating from 1981 to the present day, including new unreleased material and some old favourites. The mix will be handled by Ted Hayton, who has worked with us extensively live and in the studio since the 1980s. Please note we're promoting the concert ourselves in association with our pals Burning Shed, so tickets will not be available from the venue's box office or other ticket outlets. For this one-off UK appearance they are likely to sell quickly, so early booking is advisable."
