Hi everyone, Jez, Andy & Jimi here with long-awaited news about next month’s dates that many of you have been asking about recently.

For obvious reasons we’re unable to make the proposed tour happen, which we’re really gutted about as it was to be our first proper album tour for almost 12 years.

We’ve held off making any announcements until we could give you the full details of the new dates which are now scheduled for early next year.

With so many bands moving their tours into 2022, booking these dates has been tricky and there are a couple of venue changes due to their availability.

Thanks for sticking with us, look after each other and we’ll see you next year. 

Amongst the changes to the touring plans are: 

• Two nights at the O2 Academy Brixton becomes one, with the second night in London moving to the O2 Forum Kentish Town

• The Newcastle O2 Academy gig moves to Newcastle O2 City Hall 

In all cases, where ticket holders have valid tickets for a first or second original date they will be transferred to the respective first or second, rescheduled date in each town or city. 

The full list of tour dates for The Universal Want 2022 UK and Ireland Tour are as follows:

• Fri 11 Feb 2022 Cardiff, Cardiff University Great Hall
