Echo & the Bunnymen one of the most influential British bands in modern history, have embarked on a major UK tour for March. The tour will celebrate the songs that have brought the band twenty Top 20 hits and nine Top 20 albums so far during their incredible 40+ year career. It started in Norwich last night, bringing them to Brighton tonight and Bournemouth on Tuesday before heading to London and beyond.
The band’s seminal albums Crocodiles, Heaven Up Here, Porcupine and Ocean Rain have been a major influence for many groups such as Coldplay, The Killers, The Flaming Lips and Hole, whilst later albums Evergreen, What Are You Going To Do With Your Life and Siberia & Meteorites demonstrate what an amazing body of work the band has. Their latest studio album The Stars, The Oceans & The Moon was released in 2018 with Q Magazine calling it “Magical”.
Echo & The Bunnymen completed a lauded sold out run of Ocean Rain concerts in 2023 with The Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra which included a hometown show at Liverpool M&S Bank Arena.
