The Kooks are still in a reflective mood.
Not content with the ongoing 10-year, ‘best of’ anniversary UK tour, last year’s re-issue of debut album Inside In/Inside Out and the Best Of…So Far album which is due on May 19th, the band have now added winter UK arena shows to all this retrospection. “It’s been the greatest pleasure to work, travel, fight, hate and love the best and most talented people I’ve met in my life,” frontman Luke Pritchard enthuses.
“It’s the greatest job in the world and we don’t intend to stop any time soon.”
The newly confirmed shows end at the SSE Wembley Arena on December 2nd.
