Marc Almond's first studio album of original self-written material for 10 years! Variete is both a dramatic celebration in song of the thwarted glamour of the showbusiness of yesteryear and a brave and revealing body of autobiographical songs. Former Soft Cell frontman, Marc Almond's unique artistic sensibility has sustained a 30-year chart career in which time his albums have amassed a large and loyal international fanbase. Variete is a deeply personal and beautiful album from this Brit pop icon.
