After a busy 2024, OCEAN COLOUR SCENE will be returning to the road next year with a huge UK and Ireland tour.

In a press release, frontman Simon Fowler said “Having had such a great time playing festivals all through summer, we now have an incredible tour to look forward to in 2025. And we’re delighted that our old friends Kula Shaker will be joining us for so many of these dates. See you there.”

Guitarist Steve Cradock continues “We were quite sad when the summer shows finished this year. We’d had such a brilliant time out on the road and each audience was fantastic. Our tour in March and April 2025 is gonna be a buzz coz my son Cass is playing with us on keys again, and this time we have Oscar’s lad Leon playing percussion too – a proper family affair. Plus we’re performing at some venues that we’ve not played for a while. Always nice to mix it up. I can’t wait, I’m looking forward to it a lot!”

Drummer Oscar Harrison adds “What a great tour to look forward to. And expanding the band to include my boy Leon on percussion is something I’m very excited about. It’s going to sound immense. Roll on March!” 

Psychedelic rockers KULA SHAKER will be support across all dates except Ireland and Belfast. The band’s 1996 debut record ‘K‘ reached the top spot in the UK album charts, achieving four top 10 singles within the height of the Britpop era.
