Rockers Status Quo are returning to the SSE Hydro as part of their Accept No Substitute UK winter tour.

The band will play the Glasgow venue on December 4.

This tour will see the band returning to their fully electric set up after the huge success of the Aquostic (Stripped Bare) and Aquostic! Live At The Roundhouse albums and tour.

Francis Rossi, Rick Parfitt, Andy Bown, John 'Rhino' Edwards and Leon Cave will plug back in and bring their thunderous electric live show back to the nation's venues. Packed with hits, both new and old, taken from that unbelievable back catalogue.

Wilko Johnson will support the band.

Francis Rossi said: "We've had such a blast with the 'Aquostic' style, but for this tour we are going back to the sound that defines us.

"I read in the paper that we were breaking up; but we're not finished yet I can tell you!"

Rick Parfitt added: "I guess the name of the tour speaks for itself, but this is full-throttle no-nonsense Status Quo".

Tickets go on sale on Friday, May 8 at 9am.
