Stereo MC’s Announce May 2025 U.S. Tour Dates

Hip-hop/electronic dance pioneers Stereo MC’s announce new U.S. dates leading up to their appearance at the Cruel World Festival on May 17th. The band came to the East Coast in January for their first U.S. shows since 2001, and while in New York, they stopped by The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to perform their classic hit, “Connected.”

Featuring original members Rob Birch (Rob B), Nick Hallam, and Cath Coffey, with drummer/percussionist Tansay Omar, fans can expect to hear tracks from across the Brit Award-winner’s seven studio albums, including Connected, Step It Up, Elevate My Mind, Lost In Music, and many others.

Stereo MC’s are probably best known for their international Top 20 hit single “Connected” which was released in 1992 and was the title track of their album the same year, reaching #2 in the UK Album Chart. It also contained the hits “Step It Up,” “Creation,” and “Ground Level,” 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.
