UK Tour Announced

Yes Yes Y'all! Firstly, thanks to all of you that went out and blitzed the record stores of the UK and bought our single last week - we're all chuffed that 'The Beginning of the Twist' was such a successful comeback single for us! Without the help of a multi-million pound marketing campaign, or huge ads everywhere - I think we're on our way toward really sticking it to the 'Majors'... So nice one you guys!

Now, onto the meaty stuff…

Our album will be out in May, with a new single, ‘Radio Heart’ to come just before it. To celebrate this dual-release Futureheads bonanza, we’re hitting the road again, UK-style, and we’ll be playing at the following venues:

May
Friday 23rd Aberdeen Moshulu
Saturday 24th Dundee Fat Sams
Sunday 25th Sheffield Leadmill
Monday 26th Manchester Academy 2
Wednesday 28th Coventry Kasbah
Thursday 29th London Electric Ballroom
Friday 30th Southend Chinnery’s

June
Saturday 1st Cambridge Junction
Sunday 2nd Shrewsbury Buttermarket
Monday 3rd Nottingham Rescue Rooms

Tickets are available from 9am on friday 21st March, unless you are on the mailing list, in which case you’ll have access to tickets from thursday 20th march.

The UK dates we’ve played so far this year have been some of our most enjoyable, so as we get closer to the release of the album, I think things can, in words of D:Ream, only get better!

All the best!
