Pele are making an anniversary comeback!

Coral Daniels | 11th February 2018

Need an excuse to celebrate old indie bands? Well it’s a good job Pele are back then.

This year is the 25th anniversary of the final Pele album ‘The Sport Of Kings’.

To mark the occasion, the band will be doing a very special tour, to honour the fan-favourite record.

They will also be releasing a re-mastered version of the album, with previously un-heard material on- a must for fans.

The band will also be re-releasing ‘Fat Black Heart’ this Valentine’s Day.

Check out the video below:

The record was recorded at Rockfield Studios and produced by Jon Kelly (Kate Bush and Paul McCartney).
