The Fratellis to celebrate 20th anniversary of Costello Music

The Fratellis celebrate the 20th anniversary of their debut album, Costello Music, with a string of UK dates in February 2026. 

In the autumn of 2006, Scottish indie-rockers burst onto the scene with their blistering debut album, Costello Music. Filled to the brim with catchy riffs and brash vocals, the record featured some of the band’s most enduring tracks, including Henrietta, Whistle For The Choir and Chelsea Dagger.

Now, almost two decades on, The Fratellis take Costello Music back out on the road. After a run of festival slots this summer, including a performance on the Avalon Stage at Glastonbury, the band will celebrate the 20-year anniversary of their debut record with an extensive UK tour taking place next February. 

Scottish Indie-Rock Stalwarts

Since introducing themselves with Costello Music in the late 2000s, The Fratellis have continually reasserted themselves as a staple act in British guitar music, winning over new generations of fans who have bolstered their live presence. The band now have six full-length studio records to their name, with the latest, Drunk Under A Full Moon, arriving in 2021. 

After kicking things off at Nottingham’s Rock City on 5 February, The Fratellis will bring the infectious choruses of Costello Music to a number of historic venues across the country, including Manchester Albert Hall, the Hammersmith Apollo and Liverpool Olympia. The tour will conclude at NX in Newcastle on 20 February. The full list of dates can be found below.
