Dear Everyone,
Firstly, huge thanks to anyone who has come out to see us at our first handful of live shows for a while, a very good feeling to be back playing. Was great to be back at Bestival and especially nice to see Mick Jones still in such good form with B.A.D and PJ Harvey the evening before. On that note we are happy to announce our first UK tour in over a year. The shows, listed below, will be an opportunity for us to play the new songs that we have aired at the last few gigs as well as a few others and a pick of songs off the first two records. Although not yet totally confirmed, we should also be taking out two of our favourite new bands as support.
Our third album is very near completion and expect to hear news on it's arrival in the near future. Until then, we're really looking forward to these shows...
