The Kooks

British indie icons The Kooks have announced the ‘Never/Know’ tour and are heading to Brighton—where they originally formed—for a special homecoming show at the Brighton Centre in October 2025. They last played the venue in 2022, celebrating the 15th anniversary of their landmark debut album.

Main support for the tour will come from Merseyside four-piece, The K’s. The band were named ‘Breakthrough Act of the Year’ at the Northern Music Awards in 2024.

The Kooks’ seventh studio album, ‘Never/Know’, drops on 9th May. News of the tour follows the release of their feel-good, springtime anthem, ‘Sunny Baby’. The track was featured in The Times' Best New Songs roundup and premiered on BBC Radio 2 with Jo Whiley.
