They describe their sound as "sharp, infectious indie rock", and they've spent those twenty-odd years working within the alternative rock space. They're a band that's managed to change and evolve without losing its core identity, and they talk about approaching their work with "intelligence, wit and musical adventure". If you've followed them since the early days, that's the same spirit they're bringing to this show.
The venue is the O2 Academy Bournemouth, a Grade II listed building at 570 Christchurch Road in Boscombe, BH1 4BH. It's a proper live music space, and it's where you'll find them on the night.
Doors open at 19:00, and the curfew is set for 23:00, so you've got a full evening ahead of you. Tickets are on general sale, and there are VIP packages available if you're after something more than a standard ticket. It's a paid event, so you'll want to sort your tickets in advance.
