 WANG CHUNG CONFIRMED TO PERFORM AS PART OF RICK SPRINGFIELD “I WANT MY ‘80S” TOUR PACKAGE

Some of the ’80s biggest and most enduring hits were created by a single band, Wang Chung – including “Dance Hall Days,” “Everybody Have Fun Tonight,” “Let’s Go”, “To Live and Die in L.A.,” “Hypnotize Me,” and “Fire In The Twilight” – and now all those tracks (and more!) will be included on the new compilation, ‘Clear Light/Dark Matter’ via SING (distributed by Symphonic/AMPED Distribution).

Scheduled to release on Friday, May 9th, 2025, ‘Clear Light/Dark Matter’ reveals the many layers of Wang Chung’s music. Available on CD, digital, and a double set on black or white vinyl, the compilation spans the band’s more than four-decade career featuring a carefully curated selection of their greatest hits and hidden gems, including never-before-released demos and a new live recording. Additionally, a single-vinyl release of just the “Greatest Hits” (disc one) of ‘Clear Light/Dark Matter’ will also be available. Pre-order here.

The double-vinyl and double-CD sets also include an edit of the recently released brand new remix of “Everybody Have Fun Tonight” by acclaimed remixer Eric Kupper, known for his work with artists such as Whitney Houston, Alicia Keys, Depeche Mode, Diana Ross, and Earth, Wind & Fire. Streaming everywhere now.

Priced at $89.95, ‘Clear Light/Dark Matter’ is also available now for preorder as a “Deluxe Edition,” including instant access to the music and other exclusive digital content! 

In 2024 Wang Chung’s hit song ‘Dance Hall Days’ was featured almost in its entirety in the 2024 hit movie starring Anne Hathaway titled ‘The Idea of You.’  ‘To Live and Die in LA’ also got used as the theme tune for the John Mulaney Netflix show ‘Everybody’s in LA.’ 

And now, fans will be able to experience all of Wang Chung’s classics via ‘Clear Light/Dark Matter.’

From Wang Chung:

“Our songs often have an accessible front end, but there’s always a deeper layer beneath the surface—whether it’s lyrically or musically. ‘Clear Light, Dark Matter’ reflects that balance between the light and the dark, the yin and yang, or as we like to say, the Wang and the Chung of what we do.” -Nick Feldman

2024 was certainly a successful year for Wang Chung, starting off spectacularly last February with the first US landing on the Moon since 1972. The Moon lander’s data storage unit had all Wang Chung’s album covers together with photos of Nick and Jack and their families uploaded onto it. 
Later in the year, ‘Dance Hall Days’ was featured almost in its entirety in the aforementioned smash hit movie starring Anne Hathaway, titled ‘The Idea of You’.  ‘To Live and Die in L.A.’ also got used as the theme tune for the John Mulaney Netflix show ‘Everybody’s in LA.’ 
On the live front, the band continued to wow audiences wherever they played throughout their extensive touring in 2024.

2025 looks to be even more notable for Wang Chung, with the release of ‘Clear Light Dark Matter’ and ‘Live at El Mocambo’, as well as even more touring in North America, Australia, UK and around the world throughout the year. Plus the band plans to mark the 40th anniversary of ‘To Live and Die in LA’ later in the year….details to come on that.
