Iconic duo Everything But The Girl returns after a 25-year hiatus with two intimate London shows. The duo, formed by Tracey Thorn and Ben Watt, will perform at London’s MOTH Club on April 6th and 7th, 2025.

The shows will blend acoustic and electronic arrangements from their joint and solo work, featuring Rex Horan on double bass. Both concerts, initially offered to UK mailing list subscribers, sold out immediately.

This live comeback follows their acclaimed 2023 album ‘Fuse,’ their first studio release since 1999. Though the duo appeared in a BBC Studio Session last year to promote their latest record, their last public performance was in 2000 at Switzerland’s  Montreux Jazz Festival.

“We loved making Fuse together in 2022, and we wanted to do something else,” reflects Watt. “And that slowly turned into a conversation about playing live again.” Thorn elaborates on their vision for these intimate gatherings: “When we pictured how, we realized we just wanted to play a few songs—including some we’d never done before—in a small club. Front room, friends and family vibe. If the shows go well, we intend to do more.”
