UB40 Prepare 2026 ‘Unstoppable Tour’

UB40’s 2026 lineup.

UB40 are getting ready for their upcoming “The Unstoppable Tour” of the U.S. and Canada for Fall 2026. The legendary reggae-pop band – one of the most successful and influential British groups of all time with a reported 100+ million albums sold worldwide, and such global hits “Red Red Wine” and “(I Can’t Help) Falling in Love With You” returns to North America for a fifth consecutive year. The group will perform live—for the first time to U.S. audiences—their cover of Shania Twain’s “You’re Still the One,” which will be available on their 2027 album. Tickets are available here.

The official UB40 band features founding members James Brown (drums), Robin Campbell (guitar/vocals), Earl Falconer (bass/vocals) and Norman Hassan (percussion/vocals); along with Martin Meredith (keyboards/WX7/saxophone), Jahred Gordon (keyboards), Laurence Parry (trumpet/flugel/trombone), Ian Thompson (saxophone), Gilly G (MC vocals), Matt Campbell (backing vocals) and lead vocalist and guitarist Matt Doyle.

As the world’s biggest-selling reggae group with more than 50 U.K. charting singles and 17 U.K. Top 10 albums, the group, formed in Birmingham, England, as a group of young friends with working-class origins and has been recording and touring since 1978.

In 2008, former lead singer Ali Campbell left the group to pursue a solo career, and was replaced by his brother, Duncan Campbell, who fronted the group until he retired due to illness in 2021. Matt Doyle has since taken over as lead singer/guitarist, leading the last four major UB40 tours, and performing on their 2024 album, UB45, which features new songs and re-imagined classics, commemorating their historic 45 anniversary.
