The original chapter of Haircut One Hundred beamed briefly yet brightly. They achieved the kind of success that they could have only dreamed of four UK Top 10 hits, all of which were definitive 03980s classics 039Love Plus One039, 039Fantastic Day039, 039Favourite Shirts Boys Meets Girl039 and 039Nobody039s Fool039 followed by a debut album,039Pelican West039, which peaked at 2 during an eleven week run in the Top 10, in the process reaching Platinum status.That was 42 years ago. But now after a lengthy absence, Haircut One Hundred are back fuelled by the powerof friendship, a love of adventure, and the simple joy of seeing wherever their unexpected next chapter willtake them. Their return now gathers pace after releasing their first new music in 40 years and announcing newalbum 039Boxing The Compass039.Officially, the band039s third album a second record, minus Nick, 039Paint and Paint039 released in 1984. Arecognisably Haircut One Hundred sound, but also far beyond a simple 03980s throwback. With ideas emergingrapidly and spontaneously, coloured by all of the influences that have emerged since the first time around, aswellas being informed by the enthusiasm and top tier musicianship shown by the members of their live band.
