Overview
- The Cardiff band opened the tour at Dublin’s 3Olympia Theatre on Wednesday, May 6, marking their first full performance together in about ten years.
- A 22-song set drew from their 1990s and early-2000s records, starting with Wherever I Lay My Phone (That’s My Home) and closing with The Man Don’t Give A Fuck.
- Shows at Glasgow’s Barrowlands on May 8–9 lead into dates in Llandudno, London, Manchester, and Cardiff, plus Bristol in late June and summer slots at Alexandra Palace Park and Llangollen Pavilion.
- The group had been largely inactive since a 2010 hiatus, returning after brief 2015–16 shows while Gruff Rhys released solo work and other members formed the band Das Koolies.
- New and archival content now accompanies the tour, including an October reissue of Love Kraft on Strangetown Records with remastered tracks and rarities and a BBC Radio 6 Music session recorded this week that had not yet aired.
