Keane plans special tour to celebrate 20 years of Hopes and Fears
Keane released their debut album, Hopes and Fears, on May 10, 2004. The album was a major chart breakthrough, peaking as a chart-topper on the UK and Portuguese album charts and earning multi-platinum certifications in several countries.
The album is turning 20 next year, and the band will celebrate the album with a world tour. They will also reissue the album on May 10, 2024, exactly 20 years since its initial release. Joining them as special guests will be The Lathums. An indie band from Wigan, UK, The Lathums are best known for their debut studio album, How Beautiful Life Can Be, which was a UK chart-topper.
