Justin Hawkins Rides Again... Again

Icon. Superstar. Legend. Hero. These are all words that his publicist frequently uses when discussing Justin Hawkins with anyone who will listen. Words that reflect the magnitude of the man, the sheer charisma, brilliance, verve and intelligence that oozes from his aura. Justin Hawkins that is, not his publicist.

And that devastating wit and repartee, along with an encyclopaedic knowledge of not just music itself, but the machinations of the music industry, will be on full display when Justin Hawkins, frontman of revered rock band The Darkness, takes to the stage to Ride Again… Again!

Following the wildly successful, and hugely acclaimed, series of one-man shows that Justin Hawkins embarked upon in 2024, whereupon he brought his massively popular YouTube show of 600,000+ subscribers to life on stage, he ventures out on a new solo venture for his adoring fans at the start of 2026. From Swindon to Crewe and from Ilkley to glamorous Milton Keynes, no part of this fair kingdom shall be untouched by the inimitable Hawkins’ magic.

If you like pontificating about music and culture, uncovering insights into how the music industry really works and witnessing a man chaotically conducting an evening of entertainment, then Justin Hawkins Rides Again… Again is for you.

Once again, Justin will be breaking down some of the most popular and unusual songs out right now – dissecting the very entrails of the music industry with all the insight of a man described by the gutter press as a “cat-suit wearing noughties rock legend”. Some of those catsuits will be in attendance and important questions will be asked; questions that pertain to the world of music, culture and global peace.

After attending Justin Hawkins Rides Again… Again you will be a better person, more musically knowledgeable and potentially more confused than you’ve ever been before.
