The Pretenders have plotted a spring tour of the UK in 2024. Tickets for the shows go on sale at 10am on Friday 10 November. 

The tour comes after another run of shows to support the band’s latest album Relentless, which was released in September on Parlophone Records. 

Starting at the Glasshouse in Gateshead on Saturday 24 February, the tour will take Chrissie Hynde and co to venues in Edinburgh, Manchester, London, Oxford, Bristol and Nottingham throughout February and March next year. 

In our review of the band's most recent visit to Glasgow's Barrowlands, we wrote, ‘One of the most seductive voices in rock was in fine purr, showcased most stunningly on a stripped-back ‘You Can’t Hurt A Fool’. Her guitar wingman James Walbourne was also responsible for some sweet sonics, emitting all shades of rock’n’roll, from the utter strut of ‘Turf Accountant Daddy’ to the ultra-cool ‘Talk Of The Town’. He messed up the start of ‘Kid’ but Hynde was all over those husky legato notes.’ Read the full review here.
