The tour, called 'Past to Present - Four Decades of Their Greatest Music', will open at Leeds O2 Academy on Monday 9th November, and wrap up with two homecoming shows at Glasgow Royal Concert Hall and Glasgow Barrowland Ballroom on Sunday 6th and Tuesday 8th December.

Del Amitri will also visit Norwich, Blackpool, Cardiff, Sheffield, Nottingham, Cambridge, Bournemouth, London, Birmingham, Bath, Manchester, Liverpool, Newcastle, Edinburgh, Perth, Aberdeen and Dundee as part of the jaunt.

The band released their latest studio album 'Fatal Mistakes' in 2021, followed by 'Fatal Mistakes: Outtakes & B-Sides' in 2022.

Since their inception in Glasgow in 1980, Del Amitri have sold more than six million records worldwide, amassed five Top 10 albums in the UK, and they’ve scored huge hits with anthems including ‘Nothing Ever Happens’ and ‘Roll to Me’.
