MOOR Lane Construction, the York-based industrial and commercial builders, is backing Yorkshire-born star Bill Nelson, of Be-Bop Deluxe, fame by sponsoring the transport for his forthcoming tour.
Guitarist Bill Nelson and The Lost Satellites - a seven-piece band - launched The Be-Bop Deluxe and Beyond tour at the beginning of October to celebrate 30 years since the release of Be-Bop Deluxe's first album, Axe Victim. Music recording magazine, Sound On Sound, is main sponsor for the tour.
As a long-standing follower of Bill's music, Moor Lane Construction's managing director Steve Hargreaves was pleased when the sponsorship opportunity arose. The company has provided transport for the band and its equipment for its UK tour dates.
Steve said: "I've been listening to Bill Nelson's music for over 20 years and am pleased that he has decided to embark on this tour and glad that we've had the chance to be a part of it. As a construction company, we take an alternative approach to sponsorship and hope that our contributions are meaningful for the people involved."
Moor Lane Construction was established in 1968 and undertakes both industrial and commercial building, specialising in design-build projects.
