Slowdive, a British rock band that was formed in Reading, England, just released the dates for their 2023-2024 tour. Slowdive will be touring across 15 countries and have 47 upcoming concerts to celebrate their recent album release, ‘Everything is Alive.’ Starting with Toronto, Canada, at Queen Elizabeth Theatre, Slowdive was formed in 1989 by two childhood best friends, Neil Halstead and Rachel Goswell.
