Del Amitri will return for 5 special Scottish shows in the run-up to Christmas this year, with dates in Aberdeen, Perth, Edinburgh and ending with two nights at The Barrowland Ballroom in Glasgow.
Lead singer Justin Currie said, “Having spent the last 12 months in the comforting embrace of opening slots with Canada’s Barenaked Ladies and this Spring with the mighty Simple Minds, we’re pleased to announce our first run of UK headline shows since 2021.
We are now in pre-season training, dealing with the shock of performing for twice as long, but relishing the chance to stroll around our catalogue in a more leisurely fashion…”
Formed in Glasgow in 1983, during their distinguished career Del Amitri released four Top 10 albums and a string of memorable hit singles. Their million-selling breakthrough album ‘Waking Hours’ (1989) included the hits ‘Nothing Ever Happens’ and ‘Kiss This Thing Goodbye’. The follow-up, 1992’s ‘Change Everything’, featured the massive radio single ‘Always The Last To Know’ and reached No.2 in the albums chart, only being held off the top slot by the might of ‘The Bodyguard’ soundtrack. 1995’s ‘Twisted’ charted at No.3 and included their biggest ever single ‘Roll To Me’, which reached No.10 on the Billboard Hot 100. After promoting their fourth album, 2002’s ‘Can You Do Me Good?’, Del Amitri went on an indefinite hiatus until 2014, when they reunited, and aren’t we all glad for that.
