For the first time in 20 years, the classic line-up of Thee Hypnotics has reformed for a 15-date tour set to take place across March and April.

The line-up, consisting of co-founders Jim Jones (vocals) and Ray Hanson (guitar), with Phil Smith (drums) and Jeremy Cottingham (bass), will tour across the UK following a pair of dates in France on March 29 and 30. Kicking off at Leicester's Sounhouse on March 31, they will then take in dates in Newcastle, Glasgow, Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds and London, before finishing off at Ramsgate Music Hall on April 15.

The band will also release a vinyl anthology, including rare and unreleased material, on Beggars Arkive. Full details on its release will be announced in the coming months.
