The Streets have announced a huge UK tour next year and tickets go on general sale this week (available from 10am on Friday, October 17 via Live Nation and Ticketmaster).
In case you missed it, the English musical project is hitting the road for gigs up and down the country. There will be plenty of opportunities to be a part of the crowd with shows lined up in the likes of Margate, Bristol, Manchester, London, and Leeds.
It will be a night to remember too, as the band will perform hit 2004 album A Grand Don’t Come for Free in full for the first time ever to celebrate more than 20 years in the music industry.
Their latest studio album The Darker The Shadow, The Brighter The Light was released in October 2023, alongside a film of the same title.
Speaking about the upcoming tour, frontman Mark Skinner said: “A Grand Don’t Come For Free was a moment in time – for me, and for everyone who grew up with it.”
“I wrote it as a story from beginning to end, even studying screenwriting to shape it and without the faintest idea how people would react. We’ve been looking for something bold to do with the live show, and we landed here: some tracks have never been played live, others haven’t surfaced in years.
“It’s a new challenge to bring the whole journey to life on stage, but I have an incredible band and we always give everything every night.”
