The Lathums have extended their 2025 UK tour in celebration of their third album, Matter Does Not Define with a new outdoor show at Leeds Millenium Square for Saturday 12th July 2025. Along with very special guests, The Royston Club, the chart-topping indie four-piece look forward to playing for more than 5,000 people on the night, returning to the city for their first headline appearance in over 18 months.
This follows recently revealed news of their new album and touring plans for 2025, following the release of new music with ‘Jamaican Ale-fuelled’ single, Stellar Cast. With two, consecutive No.1 Official UK Album Chart albums already to their name, Matter Does Not Define is set for release on Fri 7 March 2025 and sees the opening credits roll on the four-piece’s third, thrilling season.
Having seen out a summer of landmark shows, inclusive of domestic and overseas main stage festival appearances, not least their own SOLD OUT 11,500-capacity gig in the sunshine at Wigan’s Robin Park, the four-piece are set to bring the love once again on one of their biggest tours to date, opening at Barrowland Ballroom, Glasgow on Thu 13 March 2025.

Released on multiple formats, including standard and special edition vinyl, CD, cassette and digital, Matter Does Not Define was written by the band, comprised of Moore, Scott Concepcion (guitars, piano and vocals) Ryan ‘Duz’ Durrans (drums) and Matty Murphy (bass and vocals), in their native Wigan before recording at Kempston Street Studios, Liverpool. They completed their new masterpiece of equally introspective and pulse-quickening indie in the company of both Kettle and producer, Chris Taylor.
The band and Curious Minds joined together with the shared aim of bringing music, theatre and other artistic projects into the lives of people with no other way of accessing them.
