The cult 1960s rock band the Zombies will today announce details of a 2009 UK tour, following a string of critically acclaimed concerts to mark the 40th anniversary of their album Odessey & Oracle. The 1968 album was the group's last before they disbanded and, despite not being a commercial success at the time, is now widely regarded as one of the greatest British albums. The Zombies regrouped in 1991, but with the notable absence of founding member Rod Argent.

The original members of the Zombies recently played three sold out concerts at London's Shepherd's Bush Empire celebrating the 40th anniversary of the album, with the exception of the late Paul Atkinson. Tickets for their forthcoming UK tour will go on sale on Thursday September 25 at 9am. Visit www.ticketweb.co.uk for further details.
