Anastacia announces ACROBVT as tour support and Roachford for special Wembley appearance

Anastacia has today announced that rising UK alt rock-pop band ACROBVT will join her as special guests across the entire #NTK 2026 UK & Ireland Tour, with legendary British soul and rock artist Roachford also confirmed as the special guest for the OVO Arena Wembley show in London on Saturday 26 September 2026.

The tour celebrates 25 years of Anastacia’s breakthrough debut album Not That Kind and follows overwhelming demand after her sold-out 25th Anniversary Tour, which saw her perform 64 shows across the UK and Europe.

ACROBVT have rapidly established themselves as one of the UK’s most exciting emerging live acts. Fronted by Ben Edwards, the band deliver anthemic hooks, soaring vocals and emotionally charged songwriting, blending cinematic rock intensity with modern pop precision. Drawing comparisons to Nothing But Thieves, The Killers and Imagine Dragons, ACROBVT have built a reputation for powerful live performances and ambitious songwriting.

Their singles Neon, co-written with Mikey Demus, and A Thousand Times, co-written with Ross Hamilton (Blossoms) and mixed by Mark Needham (The Killers, Imagine Dragons), have earned international radio support across the US, Europe, Asia and South America, alongside standout showcases at MUSEXPO in Los Angeles and The Great Escape Festival.

For the London date at OVO Arena Wembley, Anastacia will also be joined by legendary British soul and rock artist Roachford as special guest. The performance marks Anastacia’s return to the iconic venue for the first time since 2004.

Since bursting onto the scene with the classic hit Cuddly Toy in 1988, Roachford has enjoyed an acclaimed career spanning more than three decades, releasing ten studio albums, earning an MBE for Services to Music, and writing songs for artists including Michael Jackson, Joss Stone and Chaka Khan.

Renowned for his soulful vocals, electrifying stage presence and timeless songwriting, Roachford continues to captivate audiences worldwide. Following more than 100 live performances in 2025 and extensive touring throughout Europe with Jools Holland and His Rhythm & Blues Band, he brings his unmistakable energy to what promises to be one of the standout shows of the tour.

Anastacia’s #NTK 2026 UK & Ireland Tour will once again celebrate the music that established her as one of pop’s most distinctive voices, featuring beloved hits including I’m Outta Love, Paid My Dues, Left Outside Alone and many more.

Fans attending the OVO Arena Wembley show can expect an unforgettable evening of world-class live music, with ACROBVT opening the show and Roachford appearing as a special guest in London.
