The View will release their fourth studio album in July, and will also head out on an extensive UK tour a month earlier.
The Scottish band’s new record will be entitled ‘Cheeky For a Reason‘, and is due for release on July 2nd. It is currently being recorded at the Liverpool Motor Museum studios with Arctic Monkeys and Foals cohort Mike Crossey. The album is set be released on The View’s new Cooking Vinyl home label, and is to be preceded by a yet-to-be-confirmed first single on June 25th.
In support of the album, The View will head out on a UK tour later this year, beginning at Rockness in Inverness on June 9th. The dates extend throughout the remainder of June and into July, with a first gig that month coming at Pleasure Island in Cleethorpes on the 7th. The tour will be wrapped up at the Glasgow Academy on July 12th.
