Busted has announced a 15-show reunion tour alongside a new album this year. The Thunderbirds band, compromising Charlie Simpson, James Bourne and Matt Willis, will return once again for their 20th anniversary.

The trio rose to fame in the early 2000s and had four UK number-one singles and won two Brit awards before they went their separate ways in 2006. However, some of the bandmates reunited again in 2013 when they joined McFly to form McBusted for a brief stint.
