The Comeback, Briefly
Haircut 100 split in the mid-80s after Pelican West made them one of the defining acts of the new wave era. The classic lineup reunited in 2023 for a sold-out show at London's Shepherd's Bush Empire, followed by UK and US dates and a Glastonbury appearance. Boxing The Compass, released June 19, 2026, is their first album of new material since the reunion, and this tour cycle is the biggest they have mounted since the original run.
