Supergrass were a Britpop/Alternative Rock band originally active from 1993-2010, who achieved moderate State-side success with sugary early 2000's Pop-leaning singles, such as "Alright," "Caught By The Fuzz," and "In It for The Money." During their nearly 20-year career, Supergrass, also, dually functioned as a number of side-bands, including The Jennifers, Theodore Supergrass, The Diamond Hoo Ha Men, and The Hotrats; the latter even released a Nigel Godrich-produced cover of the Beastie Boys' 1989 Frat Rap single, "(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (to Party!)" Late last week, the mysterious hashtag "#Supergrass2020" started circulating across band members' Gareth "Gaz" Coombes, Danny Goffey, Mick Quinn & Rob Coombes' various social media pages and then, Friday morning, it was announced Supergrass would be reuniting... and then, before day's end, Supergrass played their first gig together in nine years at The Pilton Party held at Worthy Farm, the site of UK super-festival, Glastonbury. Now, some additional post-weekend news concerning the status of Supergrass has emerged, as well: The Coombes Brothers, Goffey & Quinn have announced an extensive 2020 Supergrass Reunion Tour with both US & UK dates. Supergrass are playing "one final" reunion show for 2019 tonight, September 9th, Oslo in Hackney, London.


"It was the first time that we collectively felt the buzz to get back in a room together and play the songs. We're extremely excited to get out there and bring a bit of Supergrass joy to all our fans... and their extended families," drummer Danny Goffey said within a press statement. To help mark the occasion, Supergrass have, also, announced an expansive, career-spanning boxset dubbed Supergrass: The Strange Ones 1994-2008. It will feature the band's six studio albums, as well as bonus CD's containing unreleased live material, B-sides, remixes, rarities, demos, and more to additionally mark the 25th anniversary of Supergrass' 1995 debut, I Should Coco. There's no word yet if Strange Ones will contain any material from Supergrass' 2010 Can-indebted "nearly finished" seventh studio album, then-tentatively titled Release The Drones; although, Supergrass HAVE unleashed a particularly Rockin' spot-on cover of "Next to You" from The Police's 1978 debut, Outlandos d'Amour. Supergrass: The Strange Ones 1994-2008 will be released on Friday, January 24, 2020 on The Echo Label/BMG. The Strange Ones Boxset, as well as 2020 concert ticket information, is currently available for pre-order at Supergrass' newly re-launched/updated website.
