The Boo Radleys. The first band of the evening returns to Rennes after 30 years. The Boo Radleys are set to embark on a European tour in 2025, celebrating the 30th anniversary of their album Wake Up!. The tour, titled Welcome Back! Tour 2025, will feature a setlist drawing on Wake Up!, Giant Steps and C'mon Kids, as well as rare tracks. It marks a return for the Boo Radleys to the Netherlands and France. After their UK tour, the band will play again in Europe.

The Boo Radleys, known for three Top 20 albums including the number-one Wake Up! in 1995, consist of original members Sice (vocals), Tim Brown (bass) and Rob Cieka (drums), joined by guitarist Louis Smith and trumpeter Nick Etwell. This lineup carries on the band's legacy while charting a new course with renewed creative freedom and independence. From their beginnings with Ichabod and I (1990) and Everything's Alright Forever (1992) on Creation Records, through Giant Steps (1993) and the commercial success of Wake Up! (1995), the Boo Radleys explored various genres. After C'mon Kids (1996) and Kingsize (1998), the band reformed in 2022, releasing Keep on with Falling, followed by the album Eight in 2023 on their own label BooSTR. In addition to this tour, the band plans new material in 2025.
