Rock bands Suede and Manic Street Preachers have announced a 2022 US tour scheduled for this November.

Suede vocalist Brett Anderson said in a press statement:
“I can’t think of a band I’d rather share a stage with than the Manic Street Preachers. They have long been an inspiration to us, and I know there are thousands of Suede fans who feel the same. It’s nearly 30 years since we last played together and I think these shows are going to be something really special.”

More about Suede and Manic Street Preachers
Manic Street Preachers, a Welsh rock band, had collaborated with Suede or the London Suede back in 1994 for a tour. In an interview with NME, Manics’ frontman James Dean Brafield said:
“Watching Suede on stage and Richard Oakes was just amazing. He had the hair, he had the moves, he had the chops, and he fitted in on stage. The next question was if they could write songs together, they came out with [1996 album] ‘Coming Up’ which is one of the best albums of the ‘90s.”
Suede is scheduled to release their ninth album, Autofiction, on September 16 after a lengthy UK headline tour in 2023. The album is a follow-up to the 2018 album, The Blue Hour, and has been led by singles, including She Still Leads Me On, 15 Again, and That Boy on the Stage.
The Manics and Suede were categorized as part of the Britpop movement of the ’90s. While Suede rejected their place in the genre, Bradfield noted that they were able to switch off to stuff like that.
Last week, the Manic Street Preachers released the 21st anniversary edition of their divisive 2001 album, Know Your Enemy. The album has been described as a “radically reimagined director’s cut” of their sixth record.
