Pioneering, alternative rockers Pixies have lined up a fresh headline UK tour for May 2025.
Pixies will play a total of nine shows including two nights at London O2 Brixton Academy. They also play Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Leeds, Birmingham, Cardiff, Newcastle and Manchester as part of the tour.
Following their acclaimed performance at All Points East festival in London – Black Francis, Joey Santiago, David Lovering, and new bassist/vocalist Emma Richardson – are riding high on critical success. Their new single ‘Motoroller’, from their forthcoming album ‘The Night The Zombies Came’, takes listeners on a Berlin scooter adventure with Francis.
Discussing the track, frontman Black Francis says:: “This is one of those kinds of songs where there’s little threads you can follow and they take you somewhere. But they’re not required for the experience. You can just start fishing around in the lyrics, and maybe you won’t find exactly what the story is, but you’ll find a story related to the city of Berlin. So just have fun with the clues that are there.”
Tickets for Pixies new dates go on general sale here on 20th September from 9am BST and pre-sales start from Wednesday 18th September.
