The Go! Team Celebrating the twentieth anniversary of their classic debut LP Thunder, Lightning, Strike, The Go! Team have announced a score of UK and Ireland live shows for July and September (see below for full details).

The upcoming dates follow the Brightonian genre melders' sold out show at The Roundhouse, London earlier this year and a recent stint Stateside. Featuring the singles The Power Is On, Ladyflash, Bottle Rocket and live anthem Huddle Formation, the band are set to play the Mercury Prize nominated album in full alongside an additional set of hits.

An incendiary live act, the band are formed from the nucleus of songwriter / multi-instrumentalist Ian Parton, superlative frontwoman Ninja and fellow multi-instrumentalist Sam Dook.

The outfit’s most recent LP, seventh album Get Up Sequences Part Two was released to widespread acclaim in February 2023.

Thunder, Lightning, Strike is set to be reissued on 13th September through Memphis Industries. In addtion to the original LP, the set includes a bonus disc of band leader Ian Parton’s original CDR versions of the tracks.

The group have also commissioned a series of remixes by artists they love to refashion songs from the album, issuing one every month. The latest cut is a redux of live favourite Everyone's a V.I.P. To Someone, remixed by fellow alternative stalwarts Cornershop.
