After a long return to live music, the Nutty Boys are finally getting back to doing what they do best. They will be performing a series of shows across the UK this summer, kicking off in Cardiff.
This won't be the band's first Jubilee show, they performed on the top of Buckingham Palace as part of the Queen’s Jubilee celebrations and set the record for the biggest ever audience for the BBC’s Live New Year’s Eve Broadcast - the most watched TV music event of 2018.

Madness famously emerged from the backstreets of Camden Town in the late '70s, and recently released a three-part original docu-series, Before We Was We: Madness by Madness, about the beginnings of the band in the area.
Throughout their career, Madness have had 10 UK top 10 albums, 15 top 10 singles and have won multiple awards - including a prestigious Ivor Novello.
The huge Cardiff Castle gig will be hosted by DEPOT Live, the live-events arm of Cardiff venue The DEPOT.
Nick Saunders, founder of The DEPOT said: “We are thrilled to be bringing Madness to such an incredible venue, we know it will be a night to remember."
