Legends of the UK live scene, there’s not many festivals or indeed towns that these boys haven’t played in the 34 years they’ve been together. In that time, they have released five albums, sold over 2 million records, been streamed over 50 million times worldwide, and enjoyed 12 Top 40 singles, including the massive hit Good Enough' - officially one of the most played tracks on British radio in the last 30 years.
The recent Anniversary Tours of Dodgy’s classic albums, Free Peace Sweet - a fan favourite and deemed a classic album of the era, spawning hits such as ‘In A Room’, ‘If You’re Thinking Of Me’, ‘Found You’ and of course, ‘Good Enough’, and the hugely successful shows for Homegrown - 'Staying Out For The Summer', ‘So Let Me Go Far’, ‘Melodies Haunt You’ and the modern classic, ‘Grassman’- that culminated in unforgettable nights at Shepherds Bush Empire and The Forum, have seen the busiest years for the band since the crazy days of the mid 90’s.
Dodgy are a rare entity nowadays as the band still boast the original line up of Nigel Clark, Mathew Priest and Andy Miller, which is a miracle considering the scrapes and conditions they have been in over their career but they are better and more energized than ever, which is partly down to some clever signings over the years to add depth and beauty to their squad, with Stu Thoy on bass and multi-instrumentalist, Graham Mann. And it’s this line up that is currently in the studio in Wales working on the highly anticipated follow up to the critically acclaimed album What Are We Fighting For, that will be released at the start of 2026.
Dodgy actually released their Ian Broudie produced debut album in 1993 before the whole Britpop phenomenon kicked off but by having a broader appeal and being blessed with being nimble and possessing great balance, the boys managed to surf that wave with alarming aplomb. Since then they have toured and played with everyone from The Who, Oasis, Blur and even The Jacksons.
Dodgy’s legacy as one of the standout British bands of the 1990s remains intact and have become a
cherished part of British musical history.
