Bury band Elbow have announced that they will be returning to Manchester this November and eager fans have the chance to get their hands on tickets this week.
The rock band announced that to celebrate 25 years of their debut album ‘Asleep In The Back’, they will be performing three hometown shows.
These will take place at the O2 Ritz Manchester on November 20, 21 and 22 this year.
The band, which formed in Bury in 1997, will perform the album from start to finish in addition to selected B-sides and rarities.
The album, released in 2001, features songs such as ‘Don’t Mix Your Drinks’ and ‘Can’t Stop’.
There were four songs released as singles in 2001: ‘Red’, ‘Powder Blue’, ‘Newborn’ and ‘Asleep in the Back’/‘Coming Second’.
Guy Garvey said: “It’s fascinating for us to revisit the atmosphere we created, and the Ritz feels like the perfect setting to capture that atmosphere.
“A time machine night for us and for the fans. See you there.”
Fans can purchase tickets for the shows from 10am on Wednesday, September 2, via the artist presale if they are signed up to the band’s mailing list.
Or they can try to grab some through the general sale on Friday, September 4 at 10am.
The O2 Ritz Manchester only has a capacity of 1,500 people so fans will have to be quick to buy tickets.
