Singer Pauline Black said: “We thought our 35th anniversary would be the perfect time to revisit our very first album Too Much Pressure and perform it in full...for the very first time!

“We can’t wait to get on the road to bring our message of multiculturalism from across four decades to venues up and down the land.

“See you there!”

The past few years have seen a huge resurgence in the popularity of The Selecter, with new material being released alongside a relentless touring schedule which has seen the band play numerous gigs and festivals across Europe, undertake three trips to the USA and play dates in Australia and Canada.
