The Stylistics, one of the most successful and enduring groups in soul music, will return to the UK this autumn for a 22-date tour, bringing their unmistakable Philadelphia soul sound to Warrington’s Parr Hall on November 6.
The tour opens at Cardiff’s New Theatre on October 31st 2026, before travelling to venues across the UK throughout November, including Birmingham Symphony Hall, Liverpool Philharmonic Hall, and Croydon’s Fairfield Halls.
Few groups can match The Stylistics’ run of success. In the early 1970s, they achieved an extraordinary 10 consecutive Top Ten hits, establishing themselves as one of Philadelphia’s biggest musical exports and one of the defining vocal groups of the era.
With original members Airrion Love and Herb Murrell still at the heart of the group, the 2026 tour offers audiences the chance to hear The Stylistics’ classic catalogue performed by members who were there when these songs first became hits.
The set will feature the Grammy-nominated “You Make Me Feel Brand New”, alongside “You Are Everything”, “Betcha by Golly, Wow”, “Can’t Give You Anything (But My Love)”, “I’m Stone In Love With You”, “Let’s Put It All Together”, “Sing Baby Sing”, “Rockin’ Roll Baby” and many more.
With their sophisticated arrangements, distinctive harmonies and unmistakable Philadelphia soul sound, The Stylistics have continued to attract audiences across generations. Their influence extends well beyond the soul and R&B world, with their music continuing to resonate across pop and contemporary music.
The Soul legends said: “We love returning to the UK and can’t wait to perform all our hits, bringing back great memories and having a great evening with you all.”
From the sophisticated Philadelphia soul of the early ’70s to their enduring influence on contemporary music, The Stylistics’ 2026 tour offers audiences the chance to hear one of soul music’s great songbooks performed live by the group that helped create it.
