FM has announced their Brotherhood UK Tour that will be taking place in September this year.
FM will perform songs from their past 14 albums including their 1986 debut album Indiscreet, plus Tough It Out, Metropolis, Synchronized, their forthcoming studio album Brotherhood, plus many more.
Formed in the 80s by the Overland brothers, FM has become one of the UK’s seminal rock bands. The band featuring longtime members Steve Overland (Vocals), Merv Goldsworthy (Bass), Pete Jupp(Drums), Jem Davis (Keyboards), and Jim Kirkpatrick (Guitar).
“From our meeting in a Notting Hill pub in 1984 to our one off comeback gig at Firefest 2007, it’s great to now tour beyond our 40th Anniversary shows,” said FM’s drummer, Pete Jupp. “Who’d have thought we’d reach such a milestone?”
FM’s special guests are three hotly tipped artists – Brave Rival, Jack J Hutchinson, and Rosalie Cunningham (who replaces the previously announced Tygers Of Pang Tang).
Rosalie Cunningham is a multiple award-winning singer songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who first came to prominence through her former bands Purson and Ipso Facto. In 2019, she embarked on her solo career, releasing her Mercury Music Prize nominated, eponymous debut album earning herself a Top 10 placing in the UK’s official independent chart, and received rave reviews from Classic Rock, Uncut, Mojo and Kerrang.
Cunningham built on her burgeoning reputation as an original, thought-provoking songwriter and musician with the release of her second solo album Two Piece Puzzle in 2022. Throughout the remainder of that year and 2023, an extensive touring schedule took in venues and festivals throughout the UK and Europe. In January 2023, she was named Female Vocalist of the Year by the readers of PROG magazine. In November 2024 she released her studio album To Shoot Another Day.
