Echo & The Bunnymen have announced a UK tour for November 2026 in support of their new album, Apples For Isaac, out now. The run opens at Cardiff Tramshed on 9th November and visits Eastbourne, Southampton, Wolverhampton, Middlesbrough, Holmfirth and Coventry.
The newly announced dates follow the release of Echo & The Bunnymen’s first album of new music in twelve years. Apples For Isaac. It is the band’s 13th album and follows 2014’s Meteorites and the 2018 compilation The Stars, the Oceans & the Moon. The album is available now on vinyl, CD and digital formats. Listen to Apples For Isaac here.
An untouchable voice singing lyrics that could well be poetry from the stars, set against a musical backdrop capable of levitating listeners without warning — Apples for Isaac is a monumental return from Echo & The Bunnymen. After years spent performing their immense catalogue of classics to audiences around the world, the Bunnymen have recorded an album that is bold and confident and at times even offers the listener a loving embrace. Across Apples for Isaac’s eleven songs, Ian McCulloch, Will Sergeant and the band have created an utterly addictive collection that perfectly captures the very essence of what makes the Bunnymen so great.
Apples for Isaac features peerless drummer Clem Burke playing on ten of the album’s eleven tracks. The Bunnymen noted his contribution to the album: “The mighty, legendary Clem Burke – longtime friend of Mac – was integral to the making of the album, and heartbreakingly passed away during its completion… love you Clem X”
Apples For Isaac features the singles Brussels Is Haunted, The Light That Surrounds You and Take Me By The Hand.
Apples For Isaac was produced by Ian McCulloch and mixed by Ian McCulloch, Alan Moulder and Andrea Wright. Listen to the album here: https://Bunnymen.lnk.to/ApplesForIsaacPR
