Smith Westerns are set to unveil new single ‘End Of The Night’ ahead of their upcoming tour.
Arriving amid a blizzard of skuzzed up American indie, Smith Westerns stood out via the sheer vitality of their songwriting. Debut album ‘Dye It Blonde’ was a blast of energy matched with some arch, knowing lyrics.
Released earlier this year, ‘Dye It Blonde’ was a cult fanbase. Travelling to the UK, Smith Westerns supported The Vaccines on a nationwide tour which helped boost their profile on this side of the Atlantic.
Confirming a series of festival appearances, Smith Westerns are now focussed on their new single. Set to be released on Domino, ‘End Of The Night’ is taken from the band’s acclaimed debut album.
Due to drop on August 29th, ‘End Of The Night’ comes as the Chicago three piece unveil plans for a new British tour.
The Autumn dates are headlined by Arctic Monkeys, and include some imposing venues. Now a bona fide sell out arena act, the Sheffield group have installed a number of impressive support acts.
The Vaccines have already confirmed a support slot, with the British newcomers set to be re-united with some old friends. Smith Westerns are due to open the dates, playing some of their largest venues yet.
Opening on October 28th, the tour hits Nottingham before travelling around the country. Two nights at the O2 Arena are planned, before Smith Westerns travel to Scotland for shows in Aberdeen and Glasgow.
Ending in Liverpool on November 9th, tickets for the tour are on sale now.
