The Kaiser Chiefs are one of Britain’s iconic modern rock groups. Known for hits like Ruby, Modern Way and I Predict a Riot, the hit-makers have announced a huge UK tour for 2022.
With presale tickets now live, the tour is set to take the Kaiser Chiefs all over the UK. Plus, they’ll be performing in the Republic of Ireland at Big Top festival, in Galway.
Founded in Leeds in 2000, the band has released seven studio albums to date and won three Brit awards, as well as netting plenty of top ten hits. The group said on Twitter: “We’re so excited to announce we’re going on tour across the UK this November with very special guests The Fratellis and The Sherlocks.”
Frontman, Ricky Wilson, told BANG Showbiz that there’s a good chance the group will be performing some brand new music during the upcoming tour. He said: “We have a lot of material […] you’ll probably hear something from those sessions in spring.”

The supporting acts for the November tour are exciting too. The band announced the news that The Fratellis and The Sherlocks will be joining them on tour via Twitter.
Formed in 2005, The Fratellis offer a similarly boisterous, fun brand of rock music to the Kaiser Chiefs and are an ideal support group for the tour as a result. They’re best known for their top ten hits, Chelsea Dagger and Whistle for the Choir.
Indie rockers from Barnsley, the Sherlocks, share the Kaiser Chiefs Yorkshire roots and are another on-brand support group for the tour. Together, the three bands are bound to entertain.
