Scottish indie quartet We Were Promised Jetpacks have unveiled plans for an extensive autumn tour starting in the US throughout September and October, before heading back to the UK for a string of shows in November including a night at our own Deaf Institute. The announcement comes with news that the cult indie outfit have signed a new record deal with label Big Scary Monsters, with fans anticipating a follow-up to 2014 album ‘Unravelling’ on the horizon. Recently reverting back to their original line-up, the Edinburgh cohorts will be celebrating their 10th anniversary of debut release ‘These Four Walls’ next year, though their original formation stretches back to 2003. A performance at Soup Kitchen back in November sold out in no time, with fans flocking to catch their visceral and brooding live show in the flesh.
Mon 19 Nov, Deaf Institute, 135 Grosvenor Street, Manchester M1 7HE, Tel: 0161 276 9350, 7:30pm, £13, www.seetickets.com
