Sundara Karma have announced a farewell UK tour for later this year – find all the details below.
The Reading band confirmed their imminent break up in a statement yesterday (September 23), saying they were “ready to explore new things” after being together for over 12 years.
They went on to tease “a BIG announcement” for today (September 24), which has now been revealed as a run of final headline shows.
The group are due to hit the road in early December for performances in Glasgow, Liverpool and Manchester before bowing out with a gig at the O2 Forum Kentish Town in London. Support will come from Overpass, apart from at the Manchester date.
Tickets go on general sale at 10am BST this Friday (September 27) – you’ll be able to buy yours here. Alternatively, fans who are signed up to Sundara Karma’s mailing list can access a pre-sale at the same time on Thursday (26).
Sundara Karma’s 2024 UK tour dates are:
DECEMBER
01 – O2 Academy, Glasgow
03 – O2 Academy, Liverpool
04 – O2 Ritz, Manchester
08 – O2 Forum Kentish Town, London
The band’s full statement reads: “This has been one of the hardest decisions we’ve ever had to make, but after years of sharing our music with you all, we’ve decided it’s time to close the most significant chapter of our lives so far. We’ve been a band for over twelve years and we’ve experienced things we could never have imagined. This journey has been nothing short of incredible!
“As we’ve grown, so have our hopes and dreams, and we’re ready to explore new things. It’s not goodbye to music—it’s just time for us to step away from making music as Sundara Karma.
“One thing that remains constant as we enter this new chapter is our friendship. We are, and always will be, the best of friends. The bond we’ve built over these years since starting the band as kids at school has only grown stronger, and that’s something we treasure as much as the music we’ve made together.
“To every fan who came to our shows, listened to our music, or supported us in any way—thank you. You’ve been with us through it all, and we’ll forever be grateful for the love, energy, and time you’ve shared with us. It may sound trite to say, but we truly couldn’t have done this without you. You’ve made this experience unforgettable.
“Loving you always & forever,
Oscar, Haydn, Ally, Dom.”
Sundara Karma released their debut album, ‘Youth Is Only Ever Fun In Retrospect’, in 2017 via Sony Music. The album reached Number 24 on the UK Albums Chart and earned a Silver Certification from the British Phonographic Industry.
They have since shared two more full-length records, ‘Ulfilas’ Alphabet’ (2019) and ‘Better Luck Next Time’ (2023).
