The Hold Steady - Are coming back to the UK!!!!
The Hold Steady will return to the UK this autumn to play a headline nine-date tour with gigs in Portsmouth, Bristol, Glasgow, Belfast, Dublin, Manchester, London, Birmingham and Sheffield. The tour will start with a run of four other European cities opening in Amsterdam on October 7th. The announcement comes on the back of a successful run of recent dates including sold out shows at Live in Leeds and the Great Escape and an intimate one-off performance at London’s Bush Hall. Brooklyn’s So-So Glos will be supporting on all shows of the tour.
The New York band’s sixth studio album 'Teeth Dreams' was released via Cooking Vinyl and produced by Nick Raskulinecz (Foo Fighters, Alice in Chains, Rush) at Rock Falcon Studios in Franklin, Tennessee. The Hold Steady formed in 2003 in Brooklyn, NY, with a vibrant mixture of Punk and Classic Rock pedigree. Punctuated by lyrically dense storytelling and guitar riffs, The Hold Steady quickly became a critically acclaimed Rock band with a rabid fan base in the UK and Europe as well as America. Teeth Dreams is the first Hold Steady album to feature twin guitars as Memphis based guitarist Steve Selvidge joined recording alongside band co-founder Tad Kubler.
