Yan Stile, Canegreen's managing director comments: "The Mica array was really the obvious choice for the Sugababes' tour. It's got the power to deliver the mix, and great articulation and imaging to handle the vocals. And it's lightweight and quick to rig and tune; you just hang it and you're ready."
Two hangs of 12 Mica line array loudspeakers serve as the main system. Low frequency content is handled by six 700-HP subwoofers. Side and front-fills are covered by four MSL-4 loudspeakers and a pair of UPA-1P loudspeakers. A Galileo loudspeaker management system provides system drive and processing, and Thornton mixes the band on a Digidesign console.
In addition to the Sugababes, Canegreen has been busy this year touring with k.d. Lang, Morrissey, Megadeth and the Enemy, as well as productions including the Cambridge Folk Festival and NME's Big Gig at the O2 Arena.
