Supergrass announce 2025 ‘I Should Coco’ anniversary Ludlow Castle show with The Cribs and Jake Bugg 

11 November, 2024

Supergrass have announced details of a ‘I Should Coco’ anniversary show at Ludlow Castle, taking place in 2025. Find ticket details below.

The gig will take place at Ludlow Castle in Shropshire on July 25, and see Gaz Coombes and co. celebrate 30 years of their seminal album ‘I Should Coco’.

It’ll also see them joined by both The Cribs and Jake Bugg as special guests, and use the set to play the tracklisting from their 1995 debut in full.

Tickets go on sale this Friday (November 15) at 9am and will be available here.

The announcement of the Ludlow Castle show comes after the band announced their return with a series of 30th anniversary UK tour dates in September – just days after teasing their comeback with fans.

The original tour announcement included live dates in Glasgow, Nottingham, Sheffield, Newcastle, Birmingham, Cardiff and Leeds throughout May, before a show at the Roundhouse in London.

As well as playing the album tracklist, they’ll also break out an encore with some of their biggest hits.

‘I Should Coco’ debuted at Number Three on the charts. Following Supergrass’ Glastonbury show later that summer, it hit Number One, and sold over 500,000 copies in the UK. With over a million sales worldwide, it’s the biggest-selling debut album from Parlophone Records since The Beatles.

Among the tracks on the album were the singles ‘Caught By The Fuzz‘ and ‘Alright‘, with the latter peaking at Number Two.

The Britpop legends split in 2010, before announcing their return in 2019 on a mission to “bring joy into a slightly disturbed world”. They’ve been on hiatus since 2022, when they played their last show at the Taylor Hawkins tribute show at Wembley Stadium.

Over the past couple of years, the members of the band had been working on their own projects, with frontman Gaz Coombes releasing his fourth solo album, ‘Turn The Car Around‘, in January of last year. Quinn, meanwhile, is also part of the shoegaze band Swervedriver, who last released an album, ‘Future Ruins’, in 2019.

Coombes discussed the chances of a reunion with NME last year, saying, “Reunions can’t go on forever and they’ve got to have some sort of lifespan. It was always gonna be that year, we were gonna do everything in 2020.

Speaking about the 2025 tour around the time of the announcement, the frontman told NME: “It’s cool, man. It’s been about a year in the making. It’s just such a great record and really means a lot to us.

“The great thing about it is that this record is part of our DNA. It’s mad that 30 years later, we’re still able to pull off that energetic, youthful chemistry on stage and read each other in that way. Although it’s a 30-year-old record, we all feel really connected to it.”

He continued: “It’s going to be exciting to get on stage and do that album as a whole for the first time ever. There are a couple of tracks that we’ve never performed live before, so that’s really cool.”
