Touring their sixth highly acclaimed studio album Heaven, New York five-piece The Walkmen bring their explosive live show to UK shores for the first time in nearly two years. Melodic, sunshine-filled guitar lines and solid rhythmic drums underpin the magnetic, intimate lyrics of front man Hamilton Leithauser to create a vibrant, masterfully honed sound. For fans across the board, this is a chance to see one of the biggest indie-rock bands of the moment in full stride and on brilliant form. Support comes from the brilliant dream-pop outfit Wild Nothing.
