Supergrass are back and have today (16th September) announced a series of UK tour dates, celebrating the 30th anniversary of their UK No.1 album, the Mercury-nominated, ‘I Should Coco’.

In 1995 Supergrass’s Mercury-nominated debut album ‘I Should Coco hit the charts at Number 3, rose to Number One in the week following Glastonbury and ended up selling over 500,000 copies in the UK and a million worldwide.

The album features classic tracks, ‘Alright’, and ‘Caught By the Fuzz’, sustaining huge cultural influence 30 years on from release. It was ‘Alright’, the band’s fourth-single, and pop masterpiece, that catapulted them to global success. ‘I Should Coco’ now stands at over 1 million sales worldwide, and impressively, is the biggest-selling Parlophone debut album since The Beatles.

May 2025 will see Supergrass will perform in venues across GlasgowNottinghamSheffieldNewcastleBirminghamManchesterCardiff, Leeds and London, before they head to the south-west for an appearance at The Great Escape Festival in Cornwall.

We are told that the performance will include I Should Coco played out in in full, before an encore of the bands greatest hits taken from various other albums released by the band in the intervening 30 years.

Speaking further on the shows, Mick Quinn said: “15th May 2025 marks 30 years since ‘I Should Coco’. Supergrass are thrilled to announce their return to perform the début album live, in its entirety, for the first time. Dynamic pricing not included.”

Consisting of Gaz CoombesMick QuinnDanny Goffey and Rob Coombes; Supergrass are one of the most important bands to emerge during the 1990s. Formed in Oxford in 1993, their accomplishments include several million record sales, 6 top 10 albums and 10 top 20 singles. With a Brit and Ivor Novello award to their name, huge praise has also been given from the likes of Q and NME, with the latter giving ‘I Should Coco’ a near-perfect 9/10.

Having been a big fan of this album and indeed this band since the 1990’s, having seen them performing live on several occaisons and enjoying a mexican meal with the band once, this is one reunion gig, I’m personally really looking forward to!
