Massive Wagons are set to shine a spotlight on men’s mental health, teaming up once again with Andy’s Man Club for their 2026 UK tour. Launching the partnership with a stripped-back campaign moment at their Sold-Out Warrington show in nothing but their Andy’s Man Club branded Oddballs boxer shorts. Using humour, openness, and visibility to support the charity’s vital work and encourage conversations around mental health across the UK.

Andy’s Man Club representatives will be present at venues throughout the Everywhere We Go UK Tour, helping to tackle the stigma surrounding men, speaking openly about mental health. Chart-topping rockers Scarlet Rebels will also be joining Massive Wagons as main tour support. At all venues apart from Gloucester, with support for that show still to be announced.

Andy’s Man Club will be embedded into the tour experience, with their facilitators on hand at shows to talk to fans, share information, and signpost local peer-to-peer support groups. The partnership aims to encourage men to open up, attend meetings, and seek support, addressing the sobering reality that suicide remains the single biggest killer of men under the age of 45 in the UK.

Frontman Baz Mills explains why the band is committed to continuing the partnership

“Super stoked to have the wonderful Andy’s Man Club back out on the road with us this April and May. The last time we toured with the guys it worked so well, we thought, why not keep doing what works! It’s a no-brainer really. Mental health isn’t something that gets fixed overnight like a bug in a system. It’s an ongoing fight to help men and people, navigate the punishing challenges surrounding mental health.

Any opportunity we get to expose our fanbase, or new people, to the realities of men’s mental health, we’ll grab with both hands. We recently caught up with Luke from AMC, and he filled us in on the successes of the tour we did together last year. He said they saw a few hundred new men attending meetings off the back of the shows, several have gone on to become facilitators, and one has even opened their own club, just amazing!

Getting the message out there and smashing the stigma around talking about mental health is the main goal, and the longer we can be involved with AMC, the better.”

Luke Tetlow-Cross from Andy’s Man Club adds:

“ANDYSMANCLUB have been working with Massive Wagons for the past two years, joining them on the Earth to Grace tour in 2024, Earth to Grace Part 2 in 2025, and their iconic Lancaster Great Hall show last September.

Across those tours we handed out over 8,500 wristbands and information cards, and we’ve seen a huge number of Massive Wagons fans attend our groups with some going on to become facilitators and help us open even more clubs across the country.

We’re thrilled to be heading back out on the road with the band for the Everywhere We Go tour this April and May. Massive thanks to Terri, the band, and the entire team for helping spread the message that #ITSOKAYTOTALK.”

Joining them on the following dates are Welsh Rockers Scarlet Rebels, whose most recent album Where The Colours Meet' scored their second top 20 UK Album Charting record, hitting number 15 and giving them their first UK Album Chart Rock and Metal number 1.

Frontman Wayne Doyle says “We’re absolutely buzzing to be joining Massive Wagons on their latest UK tour. We’ve shared a bill with them several times and we’ve always had the best time. They’re an amazing band and genuinely lovely people…So to be able to join them on the road is a massive privilege for us, we cannot wait.”
