“This will be the first time we play The O2,” Sharleen Spiteri said of the date. “We’re all incredibly excited and it’s definitely going to be a night to remember.”

Known for their enthralling, high-energy shows, the run will see the band play a set of classic hits from their recently released The Very Best Of 1989 – 2023. Support across the dates come from the incredible KT Tunstall who Rockshot Magazine also went to check out this year as she delivered her latest record NUT in full at London’s Shepherd’s Bush Empire.

The Miraculous Second Coming Of The Saints ’73-’78 At London’s Electric Ballroom

There are comebacks, and then there are resurrections. For punk devotees, the return of The Saints ’73–’78 — the latest live incarnation of the legendary Melbourne outfit — firmly belonged in the latter category. With original members Ed Kuepper and Ivor Hay at the helm, and an inspired line-up completed by Mick Harvey, Mark Arm, Peter Oxley, and a three-piece brass section led by Terry Edwards, the Electric Ballroom felt less like a gig and more like a communal rite of appreciation for one of punk’s most quietly revolutionary bands.
