<p>During lockdown we re-connected online and, for the sheer fun of it, remotely made and released ‘New York Girls At Home’. This unplanned performance ignited another idea: to mark the 10th anniversary of Hedonism by reuniting the band – in person – for a full, one-off performance to be streamed online. Hedonism was such a joyous album to make, and the response was so fantastic, that it feels really good to be revisiting it in these difficult times. We’re really looking forward to playing together again and reigniting the party vibe!</p>

We have therefore decided that we should give Bellowhead the send off it deserves and go out with a bang. </p>
<p>So we will be performing a two-part farewell tour (in November 2015 and April 2016) finishing as we started all those years back, with an intimate gig at Oxford Town Hall (on May Day 2016) - the very first venue we ever played as a band. </p>
<p>The tour dates will be announced in full on Friday June 5th and tickets will go on general sale on Friday 12th June. Mailing list members will be given the chance to pre-order on Wednesday 10th. </p>
<p>We are all looking forward to the remaining gigs and intend to make them our best shows yet so we hope you can come along for the party. </p>
<p>We hope you will not be too upset with us for calling time on the band. Of course Bellowhead would have been nothing without the support of our amazing fans over the last decade. We are all incredibly grateful to you for coming with us on this journey and want to thank you all for being part of the Bellowhead story. </p>
