Performing tracks from all points in their career, as well as introducing songs from the new album, the set will differ each night, decided only moments before they begin.

Formed in 1986 by Black Francis, Joey Santiago, David Lovering and Kim Deal, alternative rockers Pixies are best known for songs such as Where Is My Mind?, Here Comes Your Man, Debaser, Monkey Gone To Heaven and more.

The band disbanded in 1993 before re-uniting in 2004. Kim Deal left in 2013 to be replaced by Kim Shattuck, and eventually Paz Lenchantin who still remains with the band.

The group inspired the likes of Nirvana, Radiohead, Bush, Blur and Weezer.

Pixies will play Birmingham's O2 Academy on September 16.
