Black Grape have confirmed a twelve-date tour of the UK and Ireland for November and December 2016 to celebrate the twenty-first anniversary of their debut album ‘It’s Great When You’re Straight… Yeah’ , which they’ll play in its entirety.



Following the success of last year’s reunion tour, Black Grape’s lead singer Shaun Ryder said, “I am loving Black Grape and really enjoying it this time round, more than ever. I’m looking forward to doing ‘It’s Great When You’re Straight… Yeah’ on tour and can’t wait to get stuck into recording a new album.”



Rapper Kermit said, “’It’s been an absolute pleasure doing the Black Grape gigs and I’m really looking forward to jousting with Shaun again and generally having a blast, man.”



‘It’s Great When You’re Straight… Yeah’ entered the charts at #1 on its release in October 1995, yielding the Top 10 hit singles ‘Reverend Black Grape’ and ‘In The Name of the Father’, and a third Top 20 hit ‘Kelly’s Heroes’. The album will be re-issued later this this year, with further details to be announced shortly.



Black Grape was formed in 1993 by Shaun and Kermit while they were putting the finishing touches to the Happy Mondays’ album ‘Yes Please’, which the Ruthless Rap Assassins’ Kermit appeared on. It was Ryder’s first musical project after Happy Mondays had imploded.
