The Reytons have spent the last few years turning local momentum into something far larger, and now the Rotherham four-piece are taking the next obvious step. Their first ever world tour has been announced, with Australian and New Zealand dates locked for November and December as the band continue a rise built on persistence, volume and a refusal to smooth out their edges.

For a group often positioned as outsiders to the industry machine, The Reytons have compiled a record that speaks loudly enough on its own. Number one albums, sold-out hometown landmarks and major festival headlines have pushed them into the upper tier of modern British guitar bands. In 2025 alone, they toured the UK, headlined Tramlines Festival and played Wembley Arena, milestones that would once have seemed distant.

Their fourth album A Love Letter To A Broken Town arrives in July and appears set to continue the formula that brought them here: sharp hooks, social commentary and stories rooted in everyday life. Frontman Jonny Yerrell has described it as the band’s best work yet, promising growth without abandoning the sound that built their audience in the first place.

That audience has always been central to the story. The Reytons have cultivated a fanbase drawn to their blunt honesty, rough-edged humour and live shows that prioritise connection over polish. It is part of why they have moved from clubs to parks to arenas while keeping the same sense of identity intact.
