The reunited line-up features vocalist Toby Jepson, guitarist Bruce Dickinson, keyboard player Jim Dickinson, bassist Mark Plunkett and drummer Mark Richardson. The tour represents the band’s first shows since their final appearance at the Isle of Wight Festival in 2013.
The opening night takes place 9 November 2026 at Opium, Dublin, with the tour concluding at London O2 Forum Kentish Town on Sunday 29 November.
Planet Rock presenter and Little Angels frontman Toby Jepson says: “We have the best fans in the world. For nearly 40 years they’ve stood by the band despite the rarity of shows and new music. It feels like the right time to come back together, for all the right reasons. Playing music as friends, for friends, because we love it.”
Luke Morley (Thunder / Quireboys) will support Little Angels across all 16 dates, celebrating a shared era when both bands rose to prominence in UK rock. Morley says: “I think this will be a fantastic celebration of that amazing time when Thunder and Little Angels both broke through and I’m delighted to be opening for the guys. We go back a long way and there’s a lot of people out there that were really into both bands so I think I’m definitely going to have to throw in a couple of Thunder tunes; it would be rude not to! I can’t wait!”
Formed in Scarborough in 1984, Little Angels became one of the UK’s most successful hard rock bands of the late 1980s and early 1990s. Their third studio album Jam reached Number One on the UK Albums Chart in 1993.
The band achieved ten UK Top 40 singles, including Radical Your Lover, She’s a Little Angel, Product of the Working Class, I Ain’t Gonna Cry, Womankind, Soapbox and Ten Miles High.
Little Angels split in 1994 following a sell out show at the Royal Albert Hall. They reunited to perform at Download Festival 2012, and played over a dozen shows before taking their final bow at the Isle of Wight Festival 2013.
