The news of the live shows comes after a deluxe edition of the album came out on 28th June, exactly 20 years after its original release. The digital reissue includes 17 additional B-sides, some of which have not previously been available on streaming platforms.

Speaking on the album and forthcoming one off date, frontman Johnny Borrell said: "I've been looking back on that time because of getting involved with the documentary etc and yeah, it was a wild, messy, unpredictable, f*** or be f***ed, leave everything out there kind of record. Even people in indie clubs who say they hate me always say, 'Well your first album was really good' Maybe they'll drop the hate but keep listening. We’re still in great shape and we still rock f***ing hard so it should be a great show.”

A mini-documentary entitled The Making Of Up All Night about is also set to follow soon and you can watch its trailer below:

As explained in a press release: "The Making Of Up All Night features frank interviews with people who worked on the record or were around the band in 2003/4, allowing for the first time real insight into the circumstances of one of the decade’s defining records, as reviews  at the time testified."

It also follows the release of the Razorlight Fall To Pieces documentary, which charts the band's estranged relationship and their eventual. reunion
