Ascot’s Shergar Cup 1980s concert...spotlight on Toyah

Looking ahead to the spectacular 1980s Here and Now post Dubai Duty Free Shergar Cup concert on Saturday 6th August, each week we are focussing on one of the acts performing in the concert and this week is the turn of Toyah.
Toyah Wilcox is an award-winning rock legend whose musical career exploded into the charts in 1981 with ‘It’s a Mystery’, followed by chart topping hits ‘Thunder in the Mountains’ and ‘I Want to be Free’. She has had 13 top 40 singles, recorded 20 albums and travelled the world entertaining her fans.

Toyah isn’t just well known for a successful singing career but has also composed music and become a well loved actress, staring in various dramas and children’s programmes. For those with ankle biters, her distinctive voice can be heard in the Teletubbies. She is currently working in collaboration with Bill Rieflin and Chris Wong on the band ‘The Humans’, which released its second album ‘Sugar Rush’ last year. Toyah’s career continues to flourish with new music releases and live concerts in the pipeline.

Tickets for the Dubai Duty Free Shergar Cup on Saturday 6th August, including the Here and Now concert, start from £26. To book, or for further information, call 0870 727 1234 or visit ascot.co.uk.
