The Stranglers To Celebrate 50 Years With UK, Irish Tour Dates In 2024
The Stranglers, one of the most iconic and influential bands in British music history, have announced a 50 years anniversary UK & Irish tour for 2024.
Having performed their last full-scale UK tour in 2022, the band – who are famous for classic punk and post-punk era albums such as Rattus Norvegicus, No More Heroes and Black And White – has turned their minds to how they would like to celebrate their 50 years history with their fans. They decided to embark on a short tour visiting some truly special and iconic venues to mark their golden anniversary.
First formed in 1974, The Stranglers uncompromising attitude was embraced by the punk movement of the late 70s but their musicianship and menace transcended the genre. Creating a highly distinctive sound of their own, The Men In Black have achieved over 25 Top 40 singles and 18 Top 40 albums, with their most recent release, the widely critically-acclaimed Dark Matters reaching number 4 – their highest UK chart position since Feline in 1983.
The Stranglers plan to make these milestone anniversary shows extra special with two sets featuring songs from the band’s inception through to the present, showcasing their unique fifty year career. Tickets for the tour are now on sale. Visit the band’s official website for further information.
