FUNKSTERS Jamiroquai are hitting the road for their first UK tour in over five years.

The band shot to fame during the acid jazz movement of the 1990s, fronted by hat-wearing funkmaster Jay Kay.

Now, on the back of the recent top 10 album Rock Dust Light Star, the band are ready to put on another electrifying mix of dance tunes and disco grooves.

The band have been on a hiatus since hitting Manchester during 2005’s Dynamite Tour.

Their performance at the Manchester Arena next Tuesday will see new hits performed live — for one of the first times, while the band promise to treat fans to new takes on old club classics such as Space Cowboy and Cosmic Girl.
