Ride To Perform Debut Album 'Nowhere' On October Tour
Friday, 02 October 2015
Written by Jon Stickler
Ride will perform their debut album, 'Nowhere', in full on their upcoming UK tour dates.
The reformed indie quartet will celebrate the 25th anniversary of the album with shows in Leeds, Norwich, London, Liverpool, Bristol, Newcastle, Edinburgh, Nottingham and Birmingham, between October 11 and 22.
The set list at each show will open with a classic Ride set, followed by ’Nowhere’ performed live from start to finish, something the band have ever done before. Frontman Andy Bell comments:
"I’m so excited about playing 'Nowhere' in full. We are going with the 11 track CD track listing, not just the 8 tracks from the original vinyl. So the set will end with the title track on every gig of the UK tour, which is going to sound epic.
"I didn’t realise how few times we’d actually played most of the songs. And of course we have never played the album in its original track order before.
"We have been throwing in versions of some of the songs at our US dates but the majority of the preparation for these shows was done during rehearsals in London in-between our festival shows this summer. I’m especially buzzing about how 'Kaleidoscope' is sounding. It’s going to be amazing playing it for the first time.
"All in all, it’s a big deal to us, and we haven’t been certain we could pull it off until now. We as a band are so proud of the album and we are aware that fans have been campaigning for us to perform it in full on this tour but it’s only now that we are sure we can do the album justice."
Following the tour, Ride will release ‘Nowhere25’ on November 6, a CD and DVD package featuring the expanded 15-track album alongside the live recording of their concert at London’s Town and Country Club in March 1991.
