‘Red Red Wine’ singers UB40 have announced a series of UK tour dates this year to support their forthcoming album ‘Getting Over The Storm’.

The tour dates, which will take place in June, will be the first for the band since their sell-out tour of 2010. That tour, which celebrated the band's 30th anniversary, saw the group perform their debut album ‘Signing Off’ in full, including the singles ‘King’, ‘Food For Thought’ and ‘Tyler’. A collector’s edition of the album was also released at the same time.



Formed in Birmingham back in 1978, the group went on to have over forty UK Top 40 hits as well as over fifteen Top 10 albums. Speaking about their forthcoming release, guitarist/vocalist Robin Campbell said, “We are currently putting the finishing touches to our new album, so we're looking forward to playing this handful of dates and can't wait to catch-up with our fans. It's been too long, really.”



UB40's tour dates are as follows:



14th June - COVENTRY - Skydome Arena


17th June - PETERBOROUGH - Planet Ice Arena


20th June - ISLE OF WIGHT - Planet Ice Arena


21st June - CARDIFF - Planet Ice Arena
