Dexys Midnight Runners haven’t played a show under that name since 2003. The Birmingham band have officially used the name Dexys in recent years, but they’ve announced they’ll be on the road later this year across the UK & Ireland.
Announcing the dates alongside news of their signing to Heavenly Records, Dexy’s Midnight Runners confirmed they’d be playing at Wolverhampton’s The Halls on October 23. They’ll also play gigs in Glasgow, Manchester, Dublin, Bristol, London and more on the tour, but no Birmingham date.
It is not yet clear if or when the group will release new music with the name, though their signing to Heavenly Records would suggest there could be some movement. Their last album released under the name Dexys Midnight Runners came out in 1985 with Don’t Stand Me Down, though Dexys have most recently put out The Feminine Divine in 2023.
