The Futureheads live in London (Alessandro Gianferrara for Live4ever)
Reverend & The Makers, The Futureheads and The Holloways will all tour the UK together during October.
The three bands have announced shows in Liverpool, Newcastle, Glasgow, Reading, Cardiff, Nottingham, Norwich, London, Southampton, Bristol, Birmingham, Manchester and Sheffield in support of their various recent ventures which for Reverend & The Makers last year took in the release of a two-disc Best Of collection, while The Futureheads returned with a brand new album entitled Powers.
“First things first: this is not an easy listen – musically they never have been,” our review reads. “Their unique brand of angular art-pop has, whilst demonstrating musical dexterity, always been a razor-sharp assault on the ears. This continues on Powers, but the subject matter is very personal, Hyde’s struggles with his health dominating the album.”
