It’s been a long, dark time but finally, after three years, Drenge have announced a headline tour.
The band appear to be readying the release of a follow-up to 2015 second LP ‘Undertow’, with the reveal of an April and May run, titled the Grand Reopening tour. “Back where we belong, on the road and in your hearts!” the band tweeted.
The boys are back in towns across the UK this April and May as they head out on The Grand Reopening Tour.

Back in 2015, Drenge posted a video online condemning The Sun newspaper.
Posting the clip on Facebook, one of the duo is seen holding up a copy of the paper with the headline “1 in 5 Brit Muslims’ sympathy for jihadis”.
It is unclear which band member is holding the papers but he can be heard saying: “It’s hateful, it’s racist and it’s fit for the bin.”
He then dumps a bundle of copies of The Sun in the bin. The band also posted a message saying, “Don’t Buy The Sun”.
