I’m excited to see how they go down with our fans because we love them.” Tickets for the tour go on sale next Friday (August 30) at 10am here.In an interview with NME at Reading Festival 2024, the band spoke about the surreal opportunity of having The Wonder Years on their 2025 tour. “We did our first proper UK tour opening for The Wonder Years, so it’s just a very strange, full circle moment where we’re like ‘Oh, we’re taking you out for a tour?’” rhythm guitarist Matt West says.They also give a sneak preview to Reading & Leeds attendees about what to expect from their sets this weekend: “We’re coming up to the anniversary of [2015 album] ‘Life’s Not Out To Get You’ so it’s a good chance to play like a good amount of our catalogue.
