Maximo Park will be up in Scotland next month for a one-off show at the Liquid Rooms in Edinburgh.
Tickets for the show, which takes place on February 20th, go on sale from this coming Friday (January 23rd). It marks the band’s first live announcement of the year but as yet is the only date to have been etched into their 2015 calendar.
Maximo Park released the album ‘Too Much Information‘ early last year, but frontman Paul Smith was kept busy for much of the rest of 2014 with various solo projects and guest outings.
Perhaps the most notable of these was a collaboration with fellow North East indie connoisseur and Field Music mainman Peter Brewis. ‘Frozen By Sight‘ was based on his unpublished travel journals. “Peter and I have recorded the strings for the album version, and I did the vocals on a day off,” Smith explained at the time.
