Hope Of The States

Upgraded from The Deaf Institute. All tickets remain valid 

Hope Of The States have announced details of their first tour in 18 years alongside a remastered vinyl reissue of their debut album plus news of brand new music, their first since June 2006. The band, who formed in Chichester in 2000, released two records – 2004’s critically-acclaimed debut The Lost Riots and 2006’s Left – before splitting up in 2006. Their reunion shows will commemorate the 20th anniversary of The Lost Riots and also introduce fans to some of the new material the band have been recording with producer Jolyon Thomas (U2, Soft Play, Daughter). Jolyon is son of the much-missed Ken Thomas (Sigur Rós, Wire, M83), with whom the band made their first two records.
