Creation Records' indie heroes Ride are back - announcing a UK and world tour for 2015, as well as a headline slot at London's Field Day. Full dates and ticket details are below.
Renowned as paving the way for the likes of Oasis and Primal Scream, band members Andy Bell, Mark Gardener, Steve Queralt and Laurence (Loz) Colbert came together to form one of Alan McGee's Creation Records' first global success stories - rising to acclaim with their four albums Nowhere, Going Blank Again, Carnival Of Light and Tarantula.
Since their split in 1996, Andy Bell played with Hurricane #1, Oasis and then Beady Eye until their recent split, and Mark Gardener and Loz Colbert worked and played together for an album with The Animalhouse - not to mention a number of other solo and side-projects and forrays into production.
"In noise can be read the codes of life, the relations among men," says renowned French economist Jacques Attali Clamor of the reunion (yes, really). "Melody, Dissonance, Harmony; when it is fashioned by man with specific tools, when it invades man’s time, when it becomes sound, noise is the source of the purpose and power, of the dream - Music."
Ride will play the following UK and world tour dates next year - including a headline slot at London's Field Day. Tickets are on sale from 9am on Friday 21 November. For tickets and more information, visit here.
