Twins Craig and Charlie Reid and their talented band will perform eight shows nationwide in May 2019 – performing in Auckland, Hawkes Bay, New Plymouth, Palmerston North, Wellington, Christchurch, Dunedin and Invercargill.

Fans can look forward to hits like 'I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles)', 'I'm On My Way', 'Sunshine on Leith', 'Letter From America' and 'King Of The Road'; as well as material from their acclaimed new album Angry Cyclist.
