Following a triumphant performance at Download Festival yesterday, power-disco rockers Royal Republic have announced a UK English headline tour starting October 31st at London’s Electric Ballroom. Tickets go on sale Wednesday 19th June at 10am local and will be available here.
The band say:
UK! We know you have waited a long time for this. Hot on the heels of our short but sweet and salty set at Download-fest, we are incredibly stoked to announce that at long last, we’re finally coming back to take you over once and for all. We are very much looking forward!
We say:
Royal Republic are one of the best live bands we’ve seen in years and anyone who can make it to a live show has a duty to themselves to do so. We just wish they could have managed to slap a Scottish (or Welsh, or Irish) date on there for fans who don’t live in England :(
The announcement follows the recent release of their eagerly anticipated new album, LoveCop via Odyssey Music which we reviewed recently.

The band comment:
Royal Republic proudly presents our 5th studio-album LoveCop! This album summarises Royal Republic’s journey so far and is an eclectic collection of 10 songs drawing from our past, our future and present all at the same time. LoveCop says: You have the right to remain loud! So put your hands up, and dance!
Royal Republic don’t buy into the clichés or the dos and don’ts of rock’n’roll and across the album’s distinctive ten tracks is an unstoppable mix of rock, funk and disco flavours that doesn’t make sense until you’ve tried it.
With LoveCop, the band have captured their anthemic appeal on record, which features the recent single ‘Wow! Wow! Wow!’, the rock’n’roll boogie ‘Ain’t Got Time’, the fully charged power ballad ‘Lazerlove’, and the album’s title track ‘LoveCop’, which has had great support from the likes of Kerrang Radio and Planet Rock.
Produced by Adam Grahn and Michael Ilbert at the legendary Hansa Studios in Berlin, LoveCop is the band’s fifth studio album and sees them at their most bold, brazen and brilliant whilst effortlessly crossing genres to deliver their own brand of infectious good time rock infused power-disco.
Breaking all rock’n’roll norms since 2007, the Swedish quartet are formed of Adam Grahn (vocals), Hannes Irengård (guitar), Jonas Almén (bass) and Per Andreasson (drums).
Known as a tour-de-force in the live arena, their appeal knows no bounds from the hallowed fields of Donington to the metal loving crowd at Bloodstock, Royal Republic will ensure you get your boogie on and make you surrender to the LoveCop, with their irresistible blend of sass, riffs and groove.
