The Craufurd Arms gig will be their first since 2014.Speaking to NME after the London gig sold out, frontman Richard Archer said the group would like to do more shows.
“What that might be, right now I’ve no idea,” he said. “We need to sit down with our promoter and work it all out.”Asked why now is the right time for the band to get back together, Archer said, prior to their hiatus, things had become “a struggle”.

If someone wants to start a riot and they need some bodies, I’ll be there; so long as there’s a school pick-up time so I can collect my kids.”When Hard-Fi announced their return, Archer also hinted that new music could be on the horizon. “We might through in a couple of new tunes while we’re there,” he said
