Friendly Fires have announced a run of European shows with four UK and Ireland dates including Manchester’s Albert Hall.

The announcement follows recent news of their long awaited third album.

The tour opens in London in October with UK and Ireland gigs in Birmingham, Manchester and Dublin before shows in Germany, France and Holland.

Friendly Fires recently ended months of speculation with the announcement of new album Inflorescent.  The album arrives eight years after their previous release, Pala.



Friendly Fires have spent the last eighteen months recording in a variety of London studios alongside producers and co-producers Mark Ralph, James Ford and Disclosure.

The band have also released their new single Silhouettes.  The track debuted as Annie Mac’s ‘Hottest Record’.  Silhouettes was recorded in producer James Ford’s attic studio and features co-production from Ford and Mark Ralph.
