Profile:
An influence on everyone from Queen and the Pet Shop Boys to Björk and Duran Duran, brothers Ron and Russell Mael—aka Sparks—have been at the cutting edge of art-pop for more than half a century. From the electro-disco sounds of 1970s hits ‘This Town Ain't Big Enough for Both of Us’ and ‘The Number One Song in Heaven’, to the Giorgio Moroder-inspired synth-pop of the ‘80s, to the supergroup FFS that they formed with Franz Ferdinand in 2017, the duo have blazed a shimmering trail for creative envelope-pushing and genre-defying eclecticism. Making their Hong Kong debut on the back of this year’s ‘Mad!’, their 26th studio album, Sparks are guaranteed to beguile.
