Fish – to kick off  Road To The Isles tour mid February

2025 marks the coming together and closure of some powerful circles in the career of FISH, enigmatic solo artist for the last 37 years and former frontman of the band Marillion.
 
His current Road To The Isles headline tour brings to a close his touring musical legacy, with these final shows acting as the prelude to his retirement and a new life in the Outer Hebrides. Having made its way across Europe at the end of last year, the ever-changing setlists journeying through his illustrious catalogue on the Road To The Isles headline tour, have proved a delight to fans and critics.
 
“Covering all the bases from spiralling hard rock to the poignant… it shows the breadth of Fish as a lyricist; the working class chronicler, the weary warrior poet, a melancholic lover, an unashamed romantic. Still one of rock’s great raconteurs, [tonight] Fish stuns central Europe.” – Classic Rock review of Tivoli, Utrecht, October 2024
 
Regarding the forthcoming UK tour FISH says, ”In a few weeks’ time I’ll be standing on a stage in a sold-out Haddington Corn Exchange and remembering that this was where it all started with my solo career in 1989. It’s going to be an emotional performance across these two nights which set up my final shows in the UK and the last section of the ‘Road To The Isles’ tour. 
 
“The European leg was very special indeed and I can’t remember enjoying singing and performing as much as I did across those 32 gigs. I had a fantastic time and achieved exactly what I set out to do. To leave behind powerful and emotive shows that would last a long time in the memories of fans.
 
“The UK nights are going to be awesome indeed with every venue holding something unique and promising so much for everyone both on and off stage. To be retiring on this wave is a wonderful feeling and I cannot adequately express how much this all means to me after over 40 years in the music business performing on stages across the world.
 
“It’s going to be difficult to process the emotions involved but after the final Glasgow gig in March when I stand on the ferry heading over the sea to the Outer Hebrides and our new home I will have the biggest smile on my face imaginable.”
