Madness have announced a string of live shows in December this year, joined by The Fratellis on the majority of the dates.

The Sound of Madness UK arena tour kicks off on Thursday 6 December 2018 in Leeds, running through to Brighton on the 22 December.

Madness celebrate being one of the top 20 selling UK groups of all time, with seven top ten albums to their name. The band have reached the UK Top 20 charts twenty-two times, with over six million album sales to their name.

Recently they’ve achieved gold status with their Can’t Touch Us Now album, sold out shows across the country, and released their Full House – The Best Of Madness compilation.

This summer the band will be playing very special live shows as part of their Stately Madness tour, before embarking on their full UK later in the year.

Madness promise to play all the hits and fan favourites plus some brand new tracks when The Sound Of Madness tours the UK.
