A pre-sale for The Streets tour starts on October 14th.

Mike Skinner will take The Streets out on the road next year performing the band’s 2004 album A Grand Don’t Come For Free in full for the first time.

Shortly after the release of a brand new track entitled Utopia, the look back at old times has been confirmed to start at Dreamland in Margate on June 26th, the summer of outdoor UK concerts also including appearances in Manchester, London, Leeds and more through to August.

“A Grand Don’t Come For Free was a moment in time — for me, and for everyone who grew up with it,” Skinner has said.

“I wrote it as a story from beginning to end, even studying screenwriting to shape it and without the faintest idea how people would react.”

We’ve been looking for something bold to do with the live show, and we landed here: some tracks have never been played live, others haven’t surfaced in years. It’s a new challenge to bring the whole journey to life on stage, but I have an incredible band and we always give everything every night.

“So I’m certain we’ll make finding out what happened to that thousand quid a party every night.”
