Del Amitri

From their breakthrough in the late ’80s as a young Glasgow indie band through a run of era-defining albums and enduring radio staples, Del Amitri have carved out a singular place in British music. One of the UK’s most loved bands, their journey has been defined by sharp songwriting, soaring melodies and music that continues to resonate with audiences everywhere.

After their 1985 debut, it was 1989’s Waking Hours and the hit single “Nothing Ever Happens” that propelled them onto Top of the Pops, launching a run of hits including “Always The Last To Know” and later the US Top 10 smash “Roll To Me.” Across six studio albums between 1985 and 2002, the band sold over six million records worldwide.

Following a hiatus, core members Justin Currie and Iain Harvie reunited for acclaimed UK tours and returned in 2021 with Fatal Mistakes, their first new studio album in 18 years, released via Cooking Vinyl. Extensive touring followed across the UK, Europe, Australia and North America.

The ‘Present Past To Present’ UK tour this year will celebrate every chapter of the band’s story: the early breakthroughs, the chart years, the renaissance and what comes next. A career-spanning setlist will bring together classic singles, fan favourites and newer material, a reminder that Del Amitri’s songs remain as vital as ever.
