Crowded House Don't Dream It's Over As They Announce Scarborough Concert

Crowded House are heading out on their first European tour in more than 10 years – and it is coming to the Yorkshire coast next summer.

The Australian rock band behind such legendary hits Don't Dream It's Over and Weather With You will play Scarborough Open Air Theatre on Tuesday June 8.

The Yorkshire coast date will be the first UK show on the tour which also hits Glasgow, Birmingham, Cardiff and London, together with a series of iconic venues across Europe.

Joining founding members Neil Finn and Nick Seymour on stage at Scarborough OAT will be Mitchell Froom, Liam Finn and Elroy Finn.

Crowded House recently released their first new music in 10 years. New single Whatever You Want arrived with a brilliant video, directed by Nina Ljeti and starring Mac DeMarco.

The band began recording a new studio album in Los Angeles in January and from March, as the Covid-19 lockdown hit, they had to exchange new songs via online files.

Fans can expect to hear the fruits of these lockdown labours – the eagerly-awaited album Dreamers Are Waiting, which is set to be released early next year ahead of the European Tour.

Tickets go on general sale via scarboroughopenairtheatre.com at 9am on Friday December 11.
