The Kooks are back and are moving in their own way by announcing a huge UK tour that includes their biggest-ever headline show to date at London’s O2 Arena. As well as playing in London on October 11, the indie band The Kooks will be performing at Co-op Live in Manchester on October 3.
Coming after the release of their seventh album Never/Know, which drops on May 9, the band will also play shows in Manchester, Cardiff, Newcastle, and Birmingham before their first appearence at London’s O2.

Speaking on their Instagram page, the band wrote: “Did someone ask for a UK tour? We CANNOT wait to be back on the road and it wouldn’t be right without some shows at home in the UK… AND our first ever show at The O2!”
Support on the tour will come from The K’s, who are also releasing a new album later this year, with their sophmore outing Pretty On The Internet dropping in June.
Ahead of these autumn shows, The Kooks also have a number of stripped back tour of grassroots UK venues, and will also appear at Reading & Leeds festival this summer.
