The Verve are back. The famed British quartet have announced its first North American tour in almost 10 years, along with their first new music since the wildly successful 1997 album, 'Urban Hymns.'

The Verve reunited last year after an eight-year hiatus. Tickets for their six-show U.K. tour last November sold out in a mere 20 minutes. Their transatlantic comeback will kick off with an April 23 show in San Francisco, followed by a performance at the Coachella Music Festival on April 25. Other planned stops include Las Vegas, New York and Toronto. Their yet-to-be-named new album is expected later this year.
