The lauded shoegaze band announce their long-awaited return to the UK with three headline shows this November. The tour kicks off in Manchester, followed by a show at London’s OVO Arena Wembley on Tuesday 25 November, before concluding in Glasgow.
The incarnation of the band responsible for three groundbreaking studio albums and several stunning EPs first convened in London in 1987, featuring Bilinda Butcher, Colm Ó Cíosóig, Debbe Googe, and Kevin Shields.
A band of the same name, also featuring Ó Cíosóig and Shields, originated in Dublin in 1983, subsequently leaving Ireland and eventually settling in the English capital after stints in Holland and Germany. Their intention was to change the band’s name to usher in a radically different musical direction and present a new line up, but they were discouraged to do so by their label at the time, Creation Records.
