SPIRITUALIZED PURE PHASE 30TH ANNIVERSARY TOUR
Spiritualized will celebrate the 30th anniversary of their second album, Pure Phase, by playing it in full on tour in 2025. On the album, J Spaceman says, “I think it’s quite extraordinary and I’d probably say it’s my favourite of the records I’ve made. The construction of it satisfied something in me that likes breaking the rules, not in any kind of grandiose way but there’s something in the process of that which really satisfies me. Each side of the stereo contains a completely separate mix. I checked the masters back and it still sounds like this extraordinary thing. It exists in its own space, it doesn’t sound like anybody else.” Currently their are only four shows, all in the UK, hitting Glasgow, Manchester, London and Bristol in March. Meanwhile, J Spaceman and his Spiritualized bandmate John Coxon will be touring their soundtrack for William Eggleston’s Stranded in Canton this fall.
