Elliot Minor

Elliot Minor have announced a special tour to mark 20 years as a band.

Vocalist Alex Davies said: “Coming back together for the reunion tour in 2025 was such an amazing and nostalgic experience for all of us. We genuinely didn’t know what to expect after so many years away, and it was unbelievably surreal to walk out each night and see so many people there, singing every word back at us. There were moments where we’d just look at each other on stage and think, ‘How is this happening again?’

“The response to the shows reminded us just how much our band and songs still mean to people. Some of these songs were actually written back in our school/college days pre-2007, which is pretty crazy to think about – especially seeing people that age now discovering the band for the first time. It really re-ignited something in us. We’ve also been spending time together writing and recording new music, and we’re incredibly excited to get that out there as part of our 20th Anniversary alongside all the 2000s nostalgia.

“Having the opportunity to get back out there and play alongside bands that we’ve loved for years, including MADINA LAKE and THE RED JUMPSUIT APPARATUS, makes this upcoming tour feel even more special. There’s a real sense of nostalgia around it, but at the same time it feels like we’ve entered a completely new chapter for ELLIOT MINOR. We’re pumped for what’s ahead and can’t wait to get back out there.”

Support comes from Madina Lake and The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus.

Madina Lake said: “MADINA LAKE has been quietly working on a new EP to celebrate the 20th anniversary of our debut From Them, Through Us, To You in 2027. The year-long celebration begins with a UK tour alongside our friends ELLIOT MINOR and THE RED JUMPSUIT APPARATUS.”

Randy Winter of The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus said: “We’re super stoked to be returning to the UK, especially with ELLIOT MINOR & MADINA LAKE(again!). And yes, the rumours are true, new music is on the way. Heard a bounce yesterday, IT’S FIRE!”

Stewart said: “My dear friends, The time has come to say farewell to life on the road. After more than six decades, The Final Encore will most definitely be my last. I’ve been singing the music I love since I was 19 years old, and I’ve had the privilege of taking it around the world to all of you.

“It has given me a life beyond anything I could ever have imagined, and I hope I’ve given you some fond memories in return. So, may I take this opportunity to thank you for making this extraordinary life possible. I hope you’ll join me so I can thank you the best way I know how… with the music and one hell of a show. See you there.”
