Supergroup Holy Holy announce 2026 farewell tour celebrating David Bowie’s legacy
David Bowie supergroup Holy Holy have announced one last tour.
David Bowie supergroup Holy Holy have announced a farewell UK tour for September 2026, marking the final chapter for the band dedicated to preserving the sound and spirit of Bowie’s early catalogue.
Formed by drummer Woody Woodmansey of the Spiders From Mars and Bowie’s long-time friend and producer Tony Visconti, Holy Holy have spent more than a decade performing Bowie’s music exactly as it was originally created.
Visconti played on Bowie’s first two albums and went on to produce ten more across his career, while Woodmansey remains the last surviving member of the Spiders lineup.
The group will perform material spanning Bowie’s 1970 breakthrough through to his final album Blackstar.
Joining Woodmansey and Visconti on stage are Glenn Gregory of Heaven 17 on lead vocals, guitarists Paul Cuddeford and James Stevenson, Visconti’s daughter Jessica Lee Morgan on 12‑string guitar and saxophone, and pianist/keyboardist Janette Mason.
The 12‑date run begins in Glasgow on September 3, and concludes in Hull on September 19, with a London show at the O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire on September 10.
Reflecting on the decision to bring Holy Holy to a close, Woodmansey said: “Since Holy Holy formed back in 2014, we’ve played to hundreds of thousands of Bowie fans around the world. From the audience response to the energy within the band, we’ve shared some truly amazing and unforgettable evenings together. We’ve toured the UK, Japan, Europe and the US — and every time the music connects just as powerfully.”
He added that the timing of the farewell feels significant: “This upcoming tour feels especially meaningful. With the V&A Bowie exhibition now open, the recent preservation of Bowie’s legacy through the National Heritage Trust, and the 10th anniversary of David’s untimely passing, it feels like the right moment to come together again and celebrate what this music still means. We’re planning a show that truly reflects what Bowie’s music gave to the world — and what it continues to give to all of us. We aim to do him proud. See you there.”
Tickets are on sale now via venues and Ticketmaster.
