Pioneers of the iconic Madchester sound, the Happy Mondays are heading back to Australia and New Zealand to celebrate the 35th anniversary of their seminal album, Pills 'n' Thrills and Bellyaches.

Fusing funk, rock, psychedelia, and house with the pulsating energy of the UK’s burgeoning rave scene, the Happy Mondays became the face of a cultural revolution. Their 1990 release, Pills 'n' Thrills and Bellyaches, catapulted them into the mainstream, spending over six months on the UK Albums Chart and earning its place as one of the defining records of the decade.

‘Always a great buzz when we play Australia and New Zealand. Looking forward to bringing the Happy Mondays Pills ‘n’ Thrills party therein September’’ - Shaun Ryder

This isn’t just a tour, it’s a full-throttle revival of Madchester chaos, and the year's wildest party is coming.

‘’Funky dancing, maraca shaking, and incredible vocal performances Happy Mondays showed why they were so big in the 90s and have been able to keep that special place in the hearts of the fans for so long.’’ – MusicNews Monthly

‘’With Bez and Ryder’s between song banter raising the amusement stakes, the promised Hallelujah was given an airing and its iconic sounds had the crowd bouncing and swaying, it was clear that the Monday’s have lost none of their magic. They are still funky, downright vulgar but so endearing.’’ – UK Music Reviews

‘’The show was packed with anthems. Friday night's headline set from the Happy Mondays provided a wonderful dose of nostalgia from one of Manchester's most iconic outfits.’’ – The Northern Echo
