Kasabian will embark on a large UK arena tour from the end of November in support of forthcoming album ‘Velociraptor!‘
The Leicester band will begin the tour on November 28th at the Brighton Centre, before moving across to Wales for a show at Cardiff’s Motorpoint Arena on the 30th.
Moving into December, the group will visit on Nottingham on the 2nd, in addition to stops in cities such as Liverpool, Manchester and Sheffield before wrapping up the high-profile gigs at London’s O2 Arena on December 14th.
‘Velociraptor!’ is due for release on September 16th, and is the follow up to 2009’s Mercury-nominated ‘West Ryder Pauper Lunatic Asylum‘. A huge step forward from second effort ‘Empire‘, ‘West Ryder…’ saw Kasabian truly realising their obvious potential, and in doing so delivered the stadium-sized status they had long seemed destined for.
