Sugababes • United Kingdom • Mutya Buena • Siobhá

The reformed band – Siobhan Donaghy, Mutya Buena and Keisha Buchanan – will be heading out on their first UK headline tour in over 20 years in October, kicking off in Bristol before taking in Leeds, Manchester and Cardiff. The 17-date tour also includes a headline show at London’s Eventim Apollo in Hammersmith and will finish with a gig at Glasgow’s o2 Academy.

Speaking about the announcement, the band said: “We’re so excited to come full circle and announce our own headline UK tour.  We’ll be hitting the road in October and November – can’t wait to see you all there.”

The news follows a headline appearance at London’s Mighty Hoopla festival and comes ahead of a highly-anticipated appearance at Glastonbury Festival this weekend. The trio are set to play The Avalon Stage on Friday night before headliners Reef, who are replacing The Damned who had to pull out of the festival due to COVID.

According to Donaghy, “COVID threw a spanner in the works. We were recording before the series of lockdowns in the past year, but we’ve got so much material that we need to work through. We probably need to do a little more recording. As soon as we can get back together in the studio, we’re going to work on something fresh. But there’s a lot of material that I feel we should collate together because it’s some of our best work ever and it would be a shame for it not to be released properly.

Chart-topping girl band Sugababes are back and are heading 'round round' the country on their UK tour later this year, including a stop in Norwich.

The gigs will feature the original line-up of Siobhan Donaghy, Mutya Buena, and Keisha Buchanan and they are heading to the UEA LCR on Tuesday, October 18.

It is the trio's first UK tour in more than 20 years and follows their massive comeback at Mighty Hoopla Festival in London earlier this month.

Since their debut album One Touch and breakout single Overload, Sugababes, with a few line-up changes along the way, have become one of the biggest selling British girl groups of all time.

They have had six number one singles, including Freak Like Me, Hole in the Head, and About You Now.
