We Are Scientists unveil UK tour dates, Contact High video


We Are Scientists




We Are Scientists also have European gigs booked for 2022.

We Are Scientists will tour the UK and Ireland at the end of this year after making their live return in Brooklyn on August 10th.

The run of shows will begin at the Sheffield Leadmill on November 24th and take them into the second week of December via visits to cities such as Leeds, Dublin, Glasgow and Bristol.

The tour is announced shortly after Kevin Murray and Chris Cain set their new We Are Scientists album Huffy for release on October 8th.

“Love songs can easily be goofy and embarrassing, and so I sometimes have a hard time writing songs that are unambiguously romantic,” Murray said of its lead single, whose official video has just been premiered.

“Contact High really nails that heady rush of full-throttle infatuation for me, though, because it evokes my trifecta of mood-altering stimuli — dizzying romantic interaction, rousing music, and second-hand contact with psychoactive chemicals (in descending order of personal preference).”
