Rewind to the era of neon as 80s synth-pop royalty Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark arrives at the Moore Theatre on Thursday, September 12th at 8:00 PM! OMD's fresh off conquerin' the UK with their latest record, "Bauhaus Staircase," and now they're bringing their symphony stateside for a 20-date North American leg that will take Washington down memory lane with a mix of fresh tracks and surefire hits. Still performing after four decades, the award-winning duo is perhaps best known for songs like “Enola Gay,” “Maid of Orleans,” and “Electricity.” But wait, there's more in store! Prepare for double the nostalgia as the totally rad Glaswegian crew, Walt Disco, will be there to warm up the crowd with their popular single "How Cool Are You?" So, don’t settle for an average concert experience - witness this blast from the past at the most optimal stage where clear and powerful acoustics await everyone no matter where they’re seated! Get your tickets today!

OMD's original crew is coming to town, ready to prove they're still the kings of 80s synth-pop! Founding members Andy McCluskey and Paul Humphrey are extending their much-awaited tour across the pond. After rocking the UK, Ireland, and South Africa, they're hitting North America for a 20-city dance party, kicking off in Vancouver on September 11th and wrapping up in St. Petersburg on October 20th.
Awards galore? Check. Records shattered? Double check. But tonight, this duo isn’t just aiming high – they're aiming for the stratosphere! Voted as Record Mirror’s “Best Live Act” back in 1980, these guys have shelves overflowing with accolades throughout the years. Their recent Grammy buzz is credited to their released “Souvenir” box set, which was nominated for "Best Historical Album," and the group has also been honored with a Century Music Awards Platinum Disc-BEST OF award.
Synthwave meets supernovas as OMD blasts off on a journey through time, mixing their classic hits with some brand-new anthems for crowds to dance all night to! Spy on the setlist from a recent gig on their tour, and be sure to familiarize yourself with these tracks so you can sing your heart out on this groovy Thursday night.

“What has always been fascinating about OMD is their ability to layer fantastic melodies over their sounds. After all these years and a back catalog of brilliant material, this is a band that could spend their days on the ‘retro’ tours. But these guys have never taken the easy way. They continue to produce some incredible content and continue to grow,” a live review shares.
With a capacity of roughly 1,800, the Washington venue offers a closer feel to the 80s artists compared to larger arenas, fostering a more personal and intimate concert experience! Plus, a majority of locals vouch that the theater has a dignified and simple atmosphere that's ideal for music events. So, grab your tickets to Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark LIVE at the Moore Theatre on Thursday, September 12th at 8:00 PM!
