Pop icon Adam Ant is making his eagerly-awaited comeback with his first album and single in 17 years. The 'national treasure' is a figurehead for the New Romantic movement in the UK, who rose to fame in the early 80s as lead singer of post-punk group Adam and the Ants, before embarking on a hit solo career and earning ten UK top ten hits in the process.

The new release will be supported by a new movie, The Blueblack Hussar, produced by the Klaxons bassist Jamie Reynolds; and a sell-out tour of America fresh off a successful run in Australia.
