The National will draw a line under their 2013 album ‘Trouble Will Find Me‘ with a headline date at the O2 Arena in London this coming November.
The gig is to take place on November 26th, with Wild Beasts signed up as support. Tickets are available from this coming Friday (July 18th).
‘Trouble Will Find Me’ might be just coming to an end, but thoughts have been on a follow-up for some time – speaking to NME towards the end of last year, the band’s guitarist and chief creative force Aaron Dessner suggested a new, stripped back approach could be explored on their next studio effort when compared to the full bloodied rock sound which has been such a winning formula during their career to date.
“We’re actually thinking for the next album we make a very raw, un-produced simple record that nobody will like,” he said.
“I’m sure that once we’ve done touring we’ll take at least a year away from the band, but I think that we’re also excited about an idea – like, everyone seems interested in making an album a different way. It might mean a more louder, more live record that is less produced and more, just like, raw and shredding.”
