86TVs will headline at Manchester’s Deaf Institute following the release of their debut EP You Don’t Have To Be Yourself Right Now.
The Manchester gig is one of 10 UK and Ireland dates the band has announced.
The band – featuring former Maccabees duo Hugo and Felix White, their younger brother and solo artist Will White, and drummer Jamie Morrison (Stereophonics, Noisettes) – released the EP off the back of their first two singles Worn Out Buildings (which was nominated for Radio X’s Record of the Year) and follow-up Higher Love. Both songs feature on the four track EP alongside Spinning World and Dreaming.
Speaking about the EP, 86TVs explained, “You Don’t Have To Be Yourself Right Now is our first ever group of songs to sit together in a collection. It feels good. It’s a fitting place to start – three of us brothers writing lyrics from different perspectives, lots of group singing, guitars, drums, pianos and about six or seven years of our lives all wrapped up in there!”
86TVs will head out on a UK tour in February, taking in 10 UK and Ireland dates including Manchester’s Deaf Institute.
