“Come One, and Come All. After all, HAVEN’T WE WAITED LONG ENOUGH?”

Sananda Maitreya announces nine-date headline UK tour… his first in 23 years.
Following his triumphant performance at Love Supreme Festival in 2024, Sananda and his band, The Sugar Plum Pharaohs, will play nine dates across the UK.
The star will be performing songs from his iconic debut album Introducing The Hardline through to his most recent work The Pegasus Project: Pegasus & The Swan spanning the full arc of his extraordinary career.
Speaking about his long-awaited return to the UK stage Sananda said, “Why now? I was waiting for the Midnight Hour, and it’s now five minutes to midnight. We aim to blur the hours and transport our sweaty bodies to a superimposed electric glow, an orgasm of sonic surrender, and a peek behind the seductive shadowy curtains of the Moon’s Magnetic Magic.
“Coming up, we never played clubs enough. We matured too fast commercially and outgrew the clubs physically, but never sentimentally. So, we are very eager to return in this tinderbox atmosphere, where rock vibrates truest and best, nurtured passionately while nestled in the blessed bosoms of those with whom we are excited to share this unique experience, because after we are done with these nine shows, we will more than likely never again encounter one another in such an intimate exchange of physical and spiritual proximity. WE WANT YOU TO SAY THAT ‘YOU WERE THERE!’ So, Come One, and Come All. After all, HAVEN’T WE WAITED LONG ENOUGH?”
