Dog Is Dead release the final single in their trilogy of their ‘Your Childhood’ releases with ‘River Jordan’ on February 28th.
Having made a mark on their Nottingham locale with debut single ‘Glockenspiel Song’ in June of last year leading to packed home town gigs and a rash of festival performances from their hometown Splendour to the further afield likes of Glastonbury, Truck, Dot To Dot and Summer Sundae the band followed it up with the Huw Stephens approved ‘Young’.
Little wonder then that ‘River Jordan’ comes to the fore with the band being talked about as one of the ‘must see’ new bands of 2011. Continuing their rise to prominence, the single will see the band follow in the footsteps of Foals and Crystal Castles and play themselves in the final episode of the current run of Channel 4’s ‘Skins’ alongside a debut session performance for Radio One.
The band are set to play a run of UK dates:
January 27th London, The Old Queen’s Head (Chess Club night)
February 3rd Leeds, The Brudenell
March 3rd Manchester, The Castle Hotel
March 4th Darlington, Inside Out
March 5th Nottingham, The Rescue Rooms
March 11th Bristol, Thekla
