The Spiel

Following a huge run of success that has seen them secure two UK Number 1 albums in 2024 with A Matter Of Time and Liquid Gold, and as they celebrate 30 years of A Maximum High and their defining anthem‘Chasing Rainbows’, Shed Seven are thrilled to announce the return of their iconic winter tour, Shedcember X, spanning multiple dates across the UK this November and December. Support from The Academic Shed Seven have enjoyed a remarkable resurgence in recent years. In 2024, they made chart history by achieving their first ever Number 1 album with A Matter Of Time, followed just ten months later by a second Number 1 with Liquid Gold, placing them alongside artists such as The Beatles, Elton John and David Bowie in achieving two UK Number 1 albums within a single calendar year. The same year also saw the band deliver a standout performance at the iconic Radio 2 Piano Room, backed by the BBC Concert Orchestra, marking another major milestone in their career. In 2025, the band delivered a critically acclaimed set at Glastonbury, described by MOJO asa “triumphant return”, and trended at Number 1 on Twitter for several hours following their performance on BBC iPlayer. They were also awarded Best Live Actat the Independent Music Awards, voted for by fans, before going on to play a series of major outdoor shows that rank among the biggest of their 30-year career. With fans and critics alike praising their live shows as some of the best they’ve ever delivered, Shed Seven head into Shedcember X at the very peak of their powers. Shed Seven emerged as one of the defining bands of the Britpop era, their catalogue of classic singles leading to seven Top 20 hits and six Top 10 albums, alongside a reputation as one of the UK’s most powerful live acts.
