Joe Talbot with Idles playing Brooklyn Steel on May 10th, 2019 (Paul Bachmann / Live4ever)
Idles have announced some UK gigs for April 2021, more delayed celebrations for their new album Ultra Mono.
As the UK hurtles towards a new phase of strict lockdown measures the prospect of regular gig-going feels as far away as ever, but should things be looking rosier by the spring of next year Idles will play intimate shows in Southampton, Portsmouth, Brighton, Hull, Newcastle, Dundee, Leeds, Oxford, London and Bristol, in association with record shops such as Banquet, Crash and HMV.
The following month is then set to bring a wider European tour, starting with two nights at Glasgow Barrowlands.
