British melodic rock titans FM are hitting the road again this autumn – and they’re not coming alone. The band have announced a full September 2025 UK tour, bringing along three alternating support acts to keep every night fresh and unpredictable. 🎸
That’s right – no two shows are quite the same. Each stop will see a different special guest warming up the stage before Steve Overland and co. bring the house down with their silky smooth hooks, monster riffs and arena-sized singalongs.
While the venues are still to be revealed, fans can expect the usual FM magic:
- 📀 A career-spanning setlist (yes, you’ll get the classics and deep cuts)
- 🔥 Support slots from three different bands (rotating throughout the run)
- 🎤 Steve O’s vocals still sounding as powerful as they did in the ‘80s
- 🥁 A guaranteed night of feel-good, melodic rock energy
The band are promising “a different flavour every night”, thanks to the trio of support acts lined up – a proper treat for fans who might even fancy hitting multiple dates.
FM have built a rep as one of the UK’s most consistent live bands, and judging by the buzz already swirling around this announcement, tickets are going to fly out.
💬 The band said in a statement:
“We can’t wait to get back on the road this September and see all of you again. With three incredible supports lined up, every night’s going to feel unique. See you down the front!”
