Double A-Side and UK Tour Incoming from The Godfathers

The legendary rock’n’roll outsiders The Godfathers are back in action for 2026, armed with a new double A-side single and a string of UK headline dates this February. Following a busy 2025 touring Europe and playing alongside punk icons like the Sex Pistols, The Damned, and The Stranglers, the band shows no signs of slowing down.

The new single—set for release on 6th February—marks their first fresh material since 2022’s Alpha Beta Gamma Delta and features special guest contributions from none other than Devo’s Josh Hager on synths and guitar. Expect a timely, hard-hitting slice of The Godfathers’ signature rock ‘n’ roll grit.

Frontman and founder Peter Coyne calls the release “exciting, finger on the pulse rock and roll social commentary – another sonic leap forward for the group.”

A February Double Hit: New Songs and Live Shows

To celebrate the new release, The Godfathers will play three UK shows in February, including their much-loved Saint Valentine’s Day Massacre at London’s legendary 100 Club. Support on select dates comes from The Primevals and The Witchdoktors.
