Suede recently released their ninth studio album Autofiction, and had a n entirely sold-out UK headline tour this year.
Suede and the Manic Street Preachers’ UK and Ireland shows will follow a sold-out 2022 US tour. The groups are also playing several dates in Asia together next month in Taiwan, Singapore and Japan.
“I can’t think of a band I’d rather share a stage with than the Manic Street Preachers. They have long been an inspiration to us, and I know there are thousands of Suede fans who feel the same. It’s nearly 30 years since we last played together and I think these shows are going to be something really special.”
Suede’s Brett Anderson.
“We first toured with Suede in 1994 when we played with them all across Europe. Back then, it always felt like both our bands shared a certain kind of kinship, both aesthetically and historically. It still feels that way now, nearly three decades later.”
