Often hailed as the undisputed queen of ‘90s music, Jo will be digging deep into her legendary record collection to serve up a high-energy mix spanning Britpop, rock, indie, and dance—reviving the soundtrack that defined a generation.
“There’s nothing like the energy of a 90s Anthems crowd, and I am looking forward to reliving those moments with everyone,” said Jo. “From Britpop to rock to dance, it’s going to be an epic trip down memory lane.”
Jo Whiley continues to champion new music on her weekday evening show on BBC Radio 2, but for many fans, she remains the ultimate authority on all things ’90s. Her unique connection to the decade’s music scene—sharing studios and stages with the era’s biggest acts—adds authenticity to every set she plays.
Whether you were raving to club classics, living the indie dream, or singing along to Britpop anthems, Jo’s got you covered. “From the rise of Blur and Oasis to the block-rocking beats of The Chemical Brothers and The Prodigy, this isn’t just a soulless ‘90s playlist,” said a spokesperson for the tour. “It’s a journey through music history, curated by someone who lived every moment of it.”
Jo Whiley’s 90s Anthems is currently touring the UK, bringing its infectious nostalgia to cities across the country.
