2016 marks 20 years since Fun Lovin’ Criminals released their debut album and they’ve announced a new UK tour to celebrate the milestone – with Glasgow as the final calling point.
Back in 1996 the New Yorkers, who are known for their diverse sound which features elements of hip hop and alternative rock, released ‘Come Find Yourself’. The album’s most iconic song, ‘Scooby Snacks’, is instantly recognisable for sampling Quentin Tarantino’s ‘Pulp Fiction’ and ‘Reservoir Dogs’, and to mark the anniversary they’re heading back out on tour.
Although frontman Huey Morgan is more likely to be found on BBC Radio 6 Music, the group have continued to tour and record new material. Their last studio album, 'Classic Fantastic', was released in 2010 but this latest outing aims to celebrate the album which put them in the spotlight.
The 13-date UK and Ireland tour in 2016 will make its final stop off in Glasgow. Definitely a case of saving the best until last.
Fun Lovin’ Criminals, 27 Feb 2016, Barrowland Ballroom. Tickets on sale April 1 at 9am.
