Hearing that Something for Kate are celebrating 20 years in the business makes me feel pretty old. Thankfully the band aren’t showing any signs of such fatigue. They’ll mark the milestone in style with the release of their entire back catalogue on vinyl, deluxe CD, and iTunes, as well as the release of a short film charting their career, a book Paper Trail doing the same, and a big national tour this July and August.
These shows are going to be something pretty special as the band plays two sets every night. The gigs will be jam-packed with delights for fans including B-sides, rarities, and of course those killer hits. The short film will play before each show, and the book will be available from the merch stands. If you can’t make it to the shows you’ll be able to buy it online.
Expect the merch stand to get pretty crowded as the band promises to stop by every night to meet fans and sign the stuff they’ve been collecting for the last two decades.
The re-issued music goes on sale on July 4, the same day the band kicks off their retrospective 20 Year Anniversary tour.
