Haircut One Hundred are reuniting for a massive UK tour this autumn. 

Nick Heyward and co will hit the road for the first time in over 40 years, following a pair of sell-out gig earlier this year marking the anniversary of their classic debut LP, ‘Pelican West’.

Now, the band have confirmed plans to hit the road with their ‘Haircut 100% Live’ tour, with 15 dates throughout October and November.

“40 years since ‘Pelican West’ went Platinum, and we thought a few people might want to celebrate with us at the Shepherd’s Bush Empire… Wow! What a fantastic night it was back in May this year,” says Nick. 

“Our fans are incredible and tickets sold out so fast that our families and friends almost missed the boat, those tickets became gold dust. But we are coming back with a tour to beat all tours this autumn, and we can’t wait. 

“All the hits that you love and new tracks that we are bursting to share with you. See you all there for the biggest tour that Haircut 100 have ever undertaken.”

Tickets go on general sale Friday, June 30.

The full list of tour dates is below. 

OCTOBER

10 – Vicar St, Dublin

12 – NX, Newcastle

13 – Queens Hall, Edinburgh

18 – O2 Ritz, Manchester

19 – De Montfort Hall, Leicester

25 – Town Hall, Birmingham

28 – Hexagon, Reading

NOVEMBER

1 – O2 Academy, Bournemouth                                               

2 – Tramshed, Cardiff

3 – Corn Exchange, Cambridge

9 – Forum, Bath

10 – De La Warr Pavillion, Bexhill

11 – Corn Exchange, Ipswich

16 – O2 Academy, Liverpool

17 – Barbican, York

The group debuted in 1982 with their No. 4 hit Favourite Shirts (Boy Meets Girl), charted one place higher with Love Plus One, and did one better still with their album ‘Pelican West’.

More hits followed with that same album’s Fantastic Day and one-off Nobody’s Fool, both of which peaked within the Top 10, but shortly afterwards the vocalist departed and pursued a successful solo career over the decades that followed. 

However, the original quartet has remained friends throughout the years and the foursome got back together in 2004 to perform Love Plus One and Fantastic Day on VH1’s ‘Bands Reunited’ TV show, then did the whole of their debut album at Indigo at The O2 in London in 2011. 

Earlier this year, Nick told RETROPOP’s that he, Les and Graham are in the very early stages of making a new album together, sharing: “Who knows what will happen but there’ll be lots of creativity going on. That’s the band: it’s the strong bond between Les, Graham and I. In the beginning we lived together above a flower shop in Gloucester Road and we loved each other. We were such great mates and we still are.”

Since working together again, they’ve never discussed Nick’s solo success and whether there was any jealousy there. “We haven’t talked about it. It’s like when guys don’t talk about things that have happened with ex-girlfriends and stuff like that,” he insisted. “I know guys who can play golf together for years and never talk about the fact one of their wives left them for the other one. 

“There’s loads of unanswered questions but as Les says now, ‘I just let everything go,’ and I agree with that. It’s a much better place to be in when you let everything go. We’ve moved on and when we get together now it’s always great.

“It’s not just for Christmas or whether we do one gig together. We are bandmates even when the band isn’t active. We turn up somewhere and we’re dressed the same. There’s an alchemy there, an innate way of sticking together. Les, Graham and I have now said, ‘This is it now, friends for life’.”
