Super Furry Animals Plan First UK Ireland Tour in Decade for 30th Anniversary

Welsh band Super Furry Animals have announced their first tour in over a decade, the Supacabra Britain & Ireland 2026 Tour, with six shows scheduled in May across Dublin, Glasgow, Llandudno, Cardiff, Manchester, and London. The band last performed live in December 2016 and will be supported by acts including Getdown Services, Melin Melyn, and Honeyglaze during the tour. Alongside the tour, they will release a 20th anniversary remastered reissue of their 2005 album Love Kraft, featuring 22 bonus tracks, including previously unheard songs, with the reissue available in multiple formats from October 24. Super Furry Animals, formed in the early 1990s and known for their innovative live performances and promotional tactics, have not released new music since a 2016 single celebrating Wales qualifying for the Euros. The tour's announcement follows a wave of reunions among 1990s Britpop bands such as Oasis, Pulp, and Supergrass. Band members Huw Bunford, Cian Ciarán, Daf Ieuan, Guto Pryce, and Gruff Rhys will perform songs from their nine albums, marking a significant comeback for the Welsh group.
