The band will perform at Lighthouse Poole on Friday, February 12, 2027 with special guest Roachford, as part of their 40-date tour celebrating the 40th anniversary of their debut album, Popped In Souled Out.

The 1987 album launched Wet Wet Wet onto both the national and international stage, reaching number one on the UK Albums Chart and featuring hit singles such as Wishing I Was Lucky, Sweet Little Mystery, Angel Eyes, and Temptation.

Graeme Clark, Wet Wet Wet’s founding member, said: “When we made Popped In Souled Out, I was just a young guy.

“Forty years later, those songs have taken on a life of their own, and this tour is about celebrating where it all began without forgetting what followed.”

The record spent more than 70 weeks on the UK albums chart and set the stage for the band’s continued success, which included later chart-toppers.

Across two UK touring runs in February and October 2027, the band will perform tracks from Popped In Souled Out alongside other hits.

Wet Wet Wet now consists of Graeme Clark, long-standing guitarist Graeme Duffin, and lead vocalist Kevin Simm.

The band will complete their first European headline tour in over 25 years next month.

Popped In Souled Out earned multi-platinum status in the UK and helped cement Wet Wet Wet as one of the most popular British pop acts of the late 1980s.
