Gomez‘s gig at the Royal Albert Hall in London next May has just become the final night of a full UK and Ireland tour for the band.
The group are re-emerging in 2018 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their Mercury Prize winning debut album Bring It On, and announced the London show last week. Now added to that are gigs in Nottingham, Dublin, Leeds, Manchester and Bristol.
Released in April 1998, Bring It On would secure that year’s Mercury Prize ahead of some true big hitters, particularly The Verve’s huge hit Urban Hymns. Last year, listeners of BBC 6Music voted it the best ever Mercury winner, beating Portishead’s Dummy into second place.
