Jaunty two-piece Slow Club have unveiled a series of British tour dates running throughout May.

First they were twee but now they ain’t. Once sweet and wholesome, Slow Club’s music has developed over time to take on a new directness, approaching matters such as love and heartbreak from unsettling honest viewpoint.

Which isn’t to say that the duo are all doom and gloom. Live, Slow Club are one of the most rollicking enjoyable experiences on the road right now, combining singalong hits with a sweet stage manner.

Following their debut album with a sneaky Christmas EP, Slow Club have taken a short break after a hectic 2009. Now the band are packing the tour bus for another jaunt across the country.

With support from Summer Camp, Slow Club are set to tour the nation in support of their new single ‘Giving Up On Love’. A bittersweet ode to growing up alone, beneath its cheerful melody lies some heartbreaking sentiments.

Due for release on May 24th, Slow Club will celebrate the release of the track with a series of British shows. Opening on May 15th at The Great Escape the duo are to travel across the country.

Ending with their largest ever headline show in London’s Koko venue, Slow Club will be supported on the night by Spectrals, Veronica Falls and more.

Slow Club are set to play the following shows:

15 Brighton The Great Escape
25 Oxford Academy 2
26 Swansea University
27 Liverpool University
28 Manchester The Factory
29 Leeds Cockpit
31 Newcastle Evolution Festival
