LA punks Fidlar have announced a series of UK dates which will see the band performing at Manchester’s Ritz on 11 November 2015.
The news comes as the release of their new album Too draws ever closer (4 September).
Too was recorded in Nashville over the span of just two weeks. The 12-song collection of pop-infused garage rock expands on the band’s 2013 self-titled album that put them at the forefront of modern punk music. The new album showcases a band that continues to fine-tune its sonic approach while also highlighting a more introspective and revelatory approach to songwriting. It also marks the first time the band has worked with a producer.
“We could have made record number one again… but instead we decided to challenge ourselves and admit that we don’t know everything,” said guitarist and lead vocalist Zac Carper. “Up until this point we had recorded everything ourselves, so working with a producer taught us so much. I didn’t want to make a standard rock record. The goal for this album was to think outside the box and I think Jay really helped us do that.”
The full tour listing:
10 November – Bristol, O2 Academy
11 November – Manchester, The Ritz
12 November – Glasgow, The Garage
14 November – London, The Forum
15 November – Birmingham, The Institute
Tickets for Fidlar performing at Manchester’s The Ritz on 11 November 2015 go on sale at 9am on Friday 7 August priced £15.50 plus booking fee.
