Spring Tour 2026
We've pushed the Winter Tour in to the next season for a number of reasons, the main one being we hope it makes it more appealing for you to venture out to come and see us. It's exactly the same line up and format to the Winter Tour, just a different time of year! There's some new venues on the list and some old favourites that aren't - and we know we can't please everyone all the time - but we'll continue to do our best and hope to see you at a show or two! We are really delighted to have Jenn Butterworth joining us on the tour, you'll love her. FCx
