The Horne Section: Six Absolute Helmets

Five outstanding musicians. One non-musical stand-up. Six Absolute Helmets. Zero sensible reasons to put them in charge of a show.

After two sold-out years on tour, The Horne Section are back with a brand-new tour for 2027: Six Absolute Helmets.

Expect all-new songs, new jokes, questionable choreography, and an unnecessary amount of mucking about from the hugely talented band and Alex Horne, the creator and co-host of the BAFTA-winning Taskmaster. The Horne Section are “Britain’s Funniest Band” (Guardian) and one of the most gloriously ridiculous live acts around.

The Horne Section have two series of their own Channel 4 TV show, one iTunes-chart-topping podcast, and have made appearances on The Last Leg (Channel 4), Peter Crouch’s Year-Late Euros (BBC One), they are Dictionary Corner regulars on 8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown and the only band to ever host Never Mind The Buzzcocks.

Separately, the five genuinely accomplished musicians have performed with recording artists including: Oasis, Robbie Williams, Madness, Florence and the Machine, Amy Winehouse, George Ezra, Basement Jaxx, Disclosure and Noel Gallagher’s High-Flying Birds.
