Young Fathers

Young Fathers - Alloysious Massaquoi, Kayus Bankole and G. Hastings - announce news of a brand-new UK tour taking in dates across Brighton, Glasgow, Birmingham, Manchester and their largest headline show to date, London’s Eventim Apollo. The freshly announced dates follow the news of their recently announced North American Tour and a summer full of high-profile festival performances including Latitude, Somerset House, Bluedot and Glastonbury.

Known for their electrifying performances, their shows are a blur of ritualistic energy, marking them as one of the most must-see acts operating today.

Young Fathers started their year with the release of their fourth album ‘Heavy Heavy’ which was released on February 3rd via Ninja Tune. Last week it was announced that the album had been shortlisted for the 2023 Mercury Prize with FREENOW, their second nomination after winning the prize itself in 2014 for their debut album ‘Dead’. Already lauded with widespread acclaim, the news of the album’s nomination and following tour signals the lasting impact Young Fathers have had on the musical landscape in 2023.
