British indie icons The Kooks recently announced a run of Europen gigs for 2026 - full list of dates below!
News of the concerts comes shortly after the band wrapped up a run of their biggest ever headline shows, which included a sold-out show at Manchester’s Co-op Live, described by The Guardian as a “triumphant and touching mass singalong”, and culminated in a career-defining performance at London’s O2 Arena.
In May, the band released their seventh studio album, ‘Never/Know’. Their highest charting body of work since 2008, ‘Never/Know’ landed at number 5 in the UK album charts. The album’s first single was selected as Radio X’s ‘Record of the Week’. NME referred to single welcoming in a “The new era of The Kooks”.
