Stereo MC’s Announce 2025 US Dates & Hint at New Music
Electronic hip-hop group Stereo MC’s has announced some tour dates for January and hinted at the recording of new music.
Brixton via Nottingham’s globally revered hip-hop/electronic dance pioneers Stereo MC’s announce select US dates and hint at new music for 2025. These will be their first U.S. shows since 2001. Tickets go on sale this Friday, October 11th.
Following a sell-out UK tour with Happy Mondays earlier this year, Stereo MC’s, Rob Birch (Rob B), Nick Hallam, Cath Coffey, and Tansay Omar are currently on a 17-date headline tour of the UK and Ireland.
Fans can expect to hear tracks from across the Brit Awards winner’s seven studio albums, including the smash hits singles “Connected,” “Step It Up,” “Creation,” “Ground Level,” and “Deep Down & Dirty.”
In addition, fans might also be the first to hear tracks from the group’s new album, touted for release in 2025.
Nick said:
“There’s a lot of new music that’s being developed as we go, some club-orientated in keeping with our label and recent outlook, and some more in the Stereo MC’s known mould. When the two merge as one we will be there.”
Rob said:
“There are many influences in the melting pot being shaped by this time we live in. In the same way, as we look back for inspiration, we are charged by the present and that’s how we work: combining old methods with modern technology. The more diverse our music becomes the happier I feel.”
Stereo MC’s are probably best known for their international Top 20 hit single “Connected,” which was released in 1992 and taken from the Connected album the same year. The album reached #2 in the UK Album Chart and led to the group winning two Brit Awards for Best Group and Best Album in 1994.
Being childhood friends and neighbours, Rob and Nick formed Stereo MC’s in the mid-1980s, with the pair inspired to make music by their combined love of early hip-hop, funk and electronic music. The Stereo MC’s initially pressed their first 12” vinyl and started their own independent record label called Gee Street Records, with Kiss DJ Richie Rich and budding entrepreneur Jon Baker.
When Gee Street attracted the attention of 4th & Broadway in 1989, the duo recorded the debut Stereo MC’s album, 33-45-78.
