To celebrate 25 years of ‘Asleep In The Back’, elbow will return to Manchester’s Ritz this November for three very special hometown shows on 20th, 21st & 22nd November 2026.
The band will perform ‘Asleep In The Back’ in its entirety, alongside selected B-sides and rarities.
Guy Garvey: “It’s fascinating for us to revisit the atmosphere we created, and the Ritz feels like the perfect setting to capture that atmosphere. A time machine night for us and for the fans. See you there.”
The forthcoming 25th anniversary edition of ‘Asleep In The Back’ will also include an exclusive 7” featuring two B-sides selected by the band.
Pressed on 2LP marbled blue vinyl, the special edition of elbow’s debut album arrives on 17th October for National Album Day, ahead of three sold-out shows at Manchester’s Ritz this November.
