THE NEAT CONFIRMED FOR MAY ARTROCKER TOUR
Young Knives, whose third studio album, ‘Ornaments From The Silver Arcade’ was released last week, have announced details of the support act for their UK tour in May. Joining the band on all dates will be The Neat, the Hull four piece memorably described by NME as ‘all taut-as-wire riffs and drums that bounce off your skull like a steel toe-cap’.
With Q praising the Young Knives album for its ‘abundant ideas, intriguingly and artfully put’, Artrocker making ‘Ornaments…’ their album of the month and Shortlist declaring it ‘another quality album’, these dates are an opportunity to hear the new material live and remind yourself why Young Knives are possessed of such a fearsome live reputation
Young Knives play this year’s Live at Leeds Festival on Saturday 30th April before picking up The Neat to visit the following venues:
