Celebrating the 25th anniversary of his multi-platinum album 'So', Peter Gabriel will bring his 'Back To Front Tour' to the UK in October next year featuring the original live band who toured 'So' with him over 25 years ago.

Released the following year 'So' became one of the defining albums of the era, generating millions of sales and huge hits with 'Sledgehammer', 'Don't Give Up' with Kate Bush, 'Say Anything', and 'In Your Eyes'.

The Back To Front tour began in the US earlier this year and sees Gabriel reunited with musicians, bass wizard Tony Levin, guitarist David Rhodes, keyboardist David Sancious and drummer Manu Katche.
