Earlier this year, Arizona’s The Maine took to the UK to support Deaf Havana on their headlining run. The Maine filled their off days with a couple of intimate headlining shows as well as festival appearances. Now, the band looks forward to their return on a full UK headline run; the first since the release of their 2013 full length album, Forever Halloween.

The tour will mark the fourth leg of the 8123 Tour which kicked off last summer in North America. Since then, The Maine has taken it to both the Philippines and most recently Brazil with their headlining set. This time around, they’ll be bringing out fellow American 8123 artists Lydia and Nick Santino. The tour promises career highlights for both support acts - it will be Lydia’s first time in the UK as a band and Nick Santino’s in his solo career.
The Maine’s return to the UK will follow their upcoming summer long stint on the Vans Warped Tour across North America. It will also come on the heels of their upcoming release - Forever Halloween Deluxe Edition, which is slated to drop worldwide on June 17th (in the UK, Europe, Japan, Australia & New Zealand via Rude Records). The album will include additional bonus tracks not seen on the original release.
Fans in the UK will see the band play a fresh set made up of songs from their previous releases in the usual high energy performance people have come to expect of The Maine. As their reputation precedes, The Maine plans to continue as a band accessible to their fans and will be hanging out at the venue each night to meet and greet. This fan engagement plays a large role in bringing the band back to the UK so frequently, and it’s not something they ever overlook. Currently signed with Rude Records and working independently at home in the US, The Maine are enjoying the freedom that comes without a major label contract; specifically the freedom to tour when they want and release music at their preferred pace.
What is likely to be the last UK tour on their current album cycle, the 8123 Tour in the UK is one not to be missed by fans overseas. Tickets on sale now!
