After the massive success of their fourth UK Number One album ‘Audio Vertigo’ and a triumphant return to arenas in May, elbow are set to hit the road again with a series of summer 2025 shows. The tour will take the beloved band to some of the UK’s most iconic venues, including a Norman castle, a Royal palace, and a popular nature reserve, wrapping up with a headline festival appearance in the North East.
Frontman Guy Garvey shared his excitement about the tour, saying:
“We are returning to venues we’ve really loved for summer ‘25 and also visiting some towns and cities that we haven’t been to for a while. There’s nothing like settling in for the evening with old friends.”
Released in March 2024, ‘Audio Vertigo’ reaffirmed elbow’s position as one of the UK’s most cherished bands. The album debuted at Number One in the UK charts and was met with widespread critical acclaim. The Arts Desk called it “a triumph that deepens with every listen,” while MOJO described it as a “suitably landmark” 10th album. NME also praised Audio Vertigo as “their best record in years.”
