Wielding guitars, samplers, synths, bass, drums and so many macho moves you don’t know where to look, Tall Ships are going to make you dance.
Hailing from Falmouth, since the release of their debut EP in March this year, Tall Ships have toured the UK relentlessly, playing shows with the likes of The Futureheads, Pulled Apart By Horses, Dananananaykroyd, Tubelord and Baddies.
The critical acclaim that met the EP, plus their rapturously received live shows, have led to word of mouth spreading far and wide. So much so that their self-titled debut EP, released on Big Scary Monsters and Blood and Biscuits, sold out of its first edition on pre-orders alone, and has since sold out for a second time. A third printing run is currently being made.
Currently putting the finishing touches to their much-anticipated new EP, we can announce with great excitement that the band will be main support to US indie-rock heroes Minus The Bear on their 3 date UK tour.
Supporting Minus The Bear:
Aug 31 – Caberet Voltaire, Edinburgh
Sep 01 – The Academy, Sheffield
Sep 02 – The Scala, London
In September and October this year they will also be heading out on a full UK tour with Tubelord, as well as playing shows with 65 Days Of Static and Maps & Atlases.
