US band Haim, consisting of sisters Alana, Este, and Danielle Haim, has announced a UK tour in support of their forthcoming album 'I Quit'. The tour marks their first performances in the UK since their 2023 show at London's All Points East. The band is set to play in major cities including London, Cardiff, and Glasgow, with the tour kicking off on October 24th at Nottingham's Motorpoint Arena and concluding on October 31st at the OVO Hydro in Glasgow.

The announcement comes on the heels of the release of three singles from the new album: 'Relationships', 'Everybody's Trying To Figure Me Out', and 'Down To Be Wrong'. Danielle Haim shared her personal connection to 'Everybody's Trying To Figure Me Out', describing it as her favorite song written in recent years and a source of comfort during challenging times. The album 'I Quit', set to be released on June 20th, is the band's first since 2020's 'Women In Music Pt III', which earned them a Brit Award and two Grammy nominations.

Tickets for the tour will go on general sale at 10am on May 2nd, with several presale opportunities available beforehand. Fans who have pre-ordered the album can access a presale starting Tuesday, while O2 Priority members and Live Nation newsletter subscribers have their own exclusive windows. The tour promises to bring Haim's dynamic performances to some of the UK's largest venues, including London's The O2 and Manchester's Co-Op Live.

Formed in California in 2007, Haim has established themselves as a formidable force in the music industry, with six UK top 40 singles and two UK number one albums. Their upcoming tour not only supports their new album but also continues their tradition of connecting with fans through heartfelt music and electrifying live performances. As the band prepares to take the stage across the UK, fans eagerly anticipate the release of 'I Quit' and the opportunity to experience Haim's latest musical evolution live.

Shed Seven, the Yorkshire Britpop legends, have announced a special one-off summer 2026 performance at Halifax's Piece Hall to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their landmark 1996 album 'A Maximum High'. The band will deliver a full album performance followed by a second set of greatest hits during the Live At The Piece Hall concert series on June 6. This Halifax date will represent Shed Seven's only headline show of summer 2026, making it a particularly significant event for both the band and their dedicated fanbase.

The anniversary concert will feature special guest performances from Seb Lowe and The Guest List, adding to the celebratory atmosphere. Tickets for this exclusive event are scheduled to go on general sale at 10am on Friday, October 24, available through major ticketing platforms including Ticketmaster, Live Nation, and the Piece Hall's official website. The band's return to the Halifax venue follows their previous 2021 performance at the historic courtyard, establishing a continuing relationship with the West Yorkshire location.

'A Maximum High' represented a defining moment in Shed Seven's career, reaching the UK top 10 and selling more than 250,000 copies while spawning five Top 40 singles. Band frontman Rick Witter expressed enthusiasm for the upcoming celebration, stating the band is 'looking forward to giving A Maximum High the birthday party it deserves' and noting particular excitement about 'revisiting some of the songs we haven't played for decades.' The event promises to attract fans from across the country for what organizers describe as a 'one night only' celebratory event.

Shed Seven joins a diverse lineup of artists scheduled for the 2026 Live At The Piece Hall series, including Embrace, Ethel Cain, David Gray, Billy Ocean, Opeth and The Ks. The band's upcoming schedule also includes appearances at the Isle Of Wight Festival in June, featuring headliners Lewis Capaldi, Calvin Harris and The Cure, followed by a supporting performance for Richard Ashcroft at Englefield Estate in Berkshire as part of the Heritage Live series in July. Nicky Chance-Thompson MBE DL, CEO of The Piece Hall Charitable Trust, emphasized the significance of hosting these 'Yorkshire heroes' back at the venue for this milestone celebration.
