A Lighthouse spokesperson said: “It’s the first time the duo has played the venue since 1994 when it was included in the final tour of Elvis Costello & the Attractions in support of their album Brutal Youth.”

The tour kicks off in Glasgow on 5 September, includes the London Palladium on 21 September before finishing with a four-night run in Dublin.

Tickets for the show went on pre-sale to Lighthouse Friends only on December 6, and will be on general sale from 10am on Friday, December 8, at lighthousepoole.co.uk.

Lighthouse said it is “delighted” the pair would be visiting the venue.

It comes after it was announced singer-songwriter Paul Weller will be playing at Lighthouse in April.
