Promises and Lies archiveSet on the harder side of the city where life is tough. The characters of Promises And Lies live on the fringes of society. There are the manipulators who control, and the ordinary people whose lives are in their hands. These are the people we don't see - or perhaps choose not to see. But desperate people have hope - and they will fight; not everyone chooses to be a statistic... not just a forgotten name on a list. Promises And Lies is the uplifting story of people battling against the odds to survive on the edge of our deceptively glossy modern cities. Featuring a host of classic and well-loved UB40 tracks, Promises And Lies also contains new songs from the band, specially composed for this show.
