On Tour: Madness

Following their standout rooftop performance at The Queen's Diamond Jubilee Concert Madness have confirmed a second London O2 Arena show just before Christmas on Saturday 22nd December as part of their biggest arena tour to date.


The tour will see the band showcase new tracks from their forthcoming album due for release at the end of October, the follow up to the critically acclaimed, The Liberty Of Norton Folgate as well playing all the hits and fan favourites.


London band Man Like Me will join Madness on the arena tour. Man Like Me's last single Squeeze gained them new fans in all the right places, including the likes of Annie Mac and Nick Grimshaw at Radio 1. The band will soon release new single London Town VIP on August 20th and features The Streets' Mike Skinner who has been working closely with the band on their entire forthcoming album.
