PAPERBACK VERSION OF AUTOBIOGRAPHY
PUBLISHED ON SEPT 9TH
“Clearly well-timed for those seeking catharsis.” 4/5, Best New Release – Classic Pop

Due to demand Gary Numan has today announced two extra UK dates at Liverpool O2 Academy and Leicester O2 Academy to his European tour in 2022.
Opening in the UK and Ireland, the European tour includes Gary Numan’s first show at The SSE Arena, Wembley since he played three sold-out farewell concerts at the venue back in 1981. His return to the venue also represents the joint largest headline show that he has ever played in the UK – a phenomenal and unusual achievement for an artist whose career spans over 40 years.
Tickets for the extra UK dates go on sale Friday 27th August at 10am here. Tickets for all other dates are onsale now. Gary Numan will be also joined by guest Divine Shade.
The new dates follow a wealth of critical acclaim in support of his recent #2 album Intruder and precede the paperback release of his remarkable and candid autobiography (R)EVOLUTION, published on 9th September.
Gary Numan commented, “To say I’ve missed touring would be a colossal understatement. It’s the life I chose when I was a teenager so not being able to tour the world has been very difficult. But now things are changing once again and the next UK tour has been announced and I am as excited as I was when all this started for me a lifetime ago. More so in fact. I can’t wait to walk out onto a stage again, to hear the roar of the crowd, the ear shattering volume of the music, to be bathed in light and soak up that emotion. It’s what I’m here for.”
Gary Numan will be touring North America from September 17th before heading to Europe next year. The dates are:
