Lottery Winners

In the organizer's words:

British indie pop band The Lottery Winners are returning to Germany for selected shows in summer 2026. Gigs confirmed in Twistringen, Mainz, Stuttgart, Eschwege, Braunschweig and Aschaffenburg. Including festival shows and a support show for Foreigner. With their current successful album KOKO in their luggage, The Lottery Winners will return to Germany in summer 2026 for several selected shows. The British indie pop band will be presenting their current program and songs from their latest album at various festival appearances and an exclusive club show. The dates will take the band to the Ziegelei Open Air, Kessel Festival and Open Flair Festival, among others. The Lottery Winners will also accompany Foreigner at their show in Mainz, before concluding their German dates with their own headline shows in Braunschweig at Applaus Garten and in the Colos-Saal Aschaffenburg. After the successful German shows in 2025, the band is continuing its international success story. Since their formation in Leigh in the north of England, the quartet around singer Thom Rylance has developed into one of the UK's most charismatic bands with its euphoric indie pop, emotionally honest lyrics and a pronounced closeness to the audience. Their energetic live shows have taken The Lottery Winners to numerous major stages in the UK and Europe in recent years - both as headliners and as support for international stars. They have accompanied the likes of Noel Gallagher, Nickelback, Avril Lavigne, Morrissey, Paul Weller, Richard Ashcroft and Tom Jones on tour. Three consecutive sold-out evenings at the Manchester Academy with a total of 7,500 visitors* and a sold-out home show at the O2 Apollo Manchester with 3,500 guests underline the band's rapid development. The band is also regularly represented on international festival stages, for example at the Isle of Wight Festival, Boardmasters, Kendal Calling or with a record-breaking six appearances at the Glastonbury Festival. The band has also performed on official SXSW stages in Austin and Sydney and at major festivals such as Pinkpop and Paaspop in the Netherlands. In the summer of 2025, The Lottery Winners also accompanied Robbie Williams on his stadium tour of the UK and Europe, and their fourth studio album KOKO, released via Modern Sky UK, was the band's second number one success in the official UK album charts in March 2025. The album sold over 23,000 copies in its first week and reached number one in the album charts as well as the top position in the independent, vinyl, physical, download, CD, sales and cassette charts and in the iTunes album ranking. KOKO includes collaborations with Reverend and the Makers, Chad Kroeger, Shed Seven and Frank Turner. Its predecessor Anxiety Replacement Therapy reached number 1 in the UK charts in 2023 and attracted a lot of attention with guest contributions from Shaun Ryder, Boy George and Frank Turner. Singles such as You Again and Turn Around were placed on the BBC Radio 2 B-List, while KOKO was featured there as Album Of The Week. With catchy hooks, anthemic choruses and palpable emotional depth, The Lottery Winners show their artistic evolution on their latest album without losing the infectious energy that makes their live shows so special - a concert highlight not to be missed.
