Hope & Social and their blue-jacketed joyousness returns in 2026 with their trademark life-affirming show to win over the hearts and minds of gig-goers across the land. Hope & Social gigs are an emotional rollercoaster mix of chaos and superlative musicianship, built on some of the finest songs you’ll ever hear, and garnished with generous portion of Northern, self-deprecating humour. With a three-piece horn section and five-part harmonies, Hope & Social make a massive sound that draws influence from soul, indie, folk, disco and art rock. You’ll sing, you’ll dance, you’ll smile so much your face will hurt.
