REEF’s UK autumn tour will be stopping at De Valence Pavilion in Tenby on November 1 as the Somerset rockers celebrate the 30th anniversary of their debut album, ‘Replenish’.

This year marks three decades since the release of REEF’s iconic 1994 album Replenish, which they will be celebrating with the tour.

“We will of course be playing the album in full as well as other fan favourites,” said singer Gary Stringer. “That record changed our lives. It’s kids from the countryside coming to the city and saying, ‘This is us, this is our energy, this is what we want to share.’ And people connected with it.”

Produced by Clive Martin, the raw energy of this album spawned the hit singles Good Feeling and the riff monster that is Naked. And it still sounds just as fresh and uncompromised today as it did upon release. The album’s success led the band to tour with the legendary grunge act Soundgarden and stoner rock pioneers Kyuss, as well as leading to the band opening the NME stage at Glastonbury.

Thirty years later, with number one albums, countless tours, and a string of massive hits under their belts, Reef are still out there, passion undimmed and thoroughly looking forward to revisiting where it all started.

REEF will be playing in Tenby from 7pm on November 1. To buy tickets, visit the De Valence Pavilion website, www.devalencepavilion.com/upcomingevents .

The ‘Replenish’ UK tour starts at Nottingham’s Rock City on October 16 and finishes at London’s Shepherd’s Bush Empire on November 8. The band has already announced Ireland’s Kerbdog as the main support across most of their UK ‘Replenish’ tour dates. More recently, REEF announced their plans to bring along Gomez frontman Ben Ottewell for their shows in Manchester and Liverpool.
