Ride in London. July 2017. (Alberto Pezzali / Live4ever)
Ride will play a couple of headline UK dates in between their previously arranged festival appearances at Electric Fields and Bingley Music Live.
The Sheffield Plug is on the agenda for August 31st, with a show at the Tramshed in Cardiff following a day later. Ride’s regular touring has matched their musical output since the 2014 reunion as the Tomorrow’s Shore EP swiftly followed last year’s full length Weather Diaries – an album which Live4ever said proved they’re ‘still lightning in a bottle’:
“An angry statement on chaotic times, this newly found skill for polemicising continues on Charm Assault, the lyrics a condemnation of Harridan politicians and their ethic-free circus, the music a churning pedal fest that bridges the gap between Tarantula’s trad-rock and the Smiths-inspired riffola of their vintage EPs.”
