This has included a whopping 16 top 40 hits including I'll Never Fall In Love Again and Real Gone Kid.

Ricky Ross, James Prime, Lorraine McIntosh, Dougie Vipond, Gregor Philp and Lewis Gordon currently make up the roster.

Past members include Graeme Kelling, Ewen Vernal, Mick Slaven, Scott Fraser, Taj Wyzgowski, Ged Grimes and Chris Henderson.

Despite going on hiatus in 1994, they reformed in 1999 and have been making music ever since.

The group released their tenth studio album just last year, titled Riding On The Tide of Love, and recently performed at BBC Radio 2 In The Park.

They will perform on June 19, 2024, with their spot on a stellar concert series lineup.

This also includes Paloma Faith on June 20, as well as Eurovision superstar Sam Ryder on June 14.

Before this, Nile Rogers and Chic will be taking the stage at the Hampton Court Palace Festival on June 13.

Pre-sale begins at 10am on Friday 1 December 2023, while tickets are on general sale from 10am on Monday 4 December 2023.

Previously, we reported how the band looked very different prior to their comeback.

Meanwhile, the gig comes amid another legendary eighties rock band reunion for Death Cult, previously known as The Cult.

In what seems a wave of recent reunions, another pop band, Talking Heads, made a rare appearance together nearly 20 years on from their bitter split.

While rock icons Cutting Crew looked completely different decades on from finding fame and the tragic loss of band member, guitarist Kevin MacMichael.
