Foy Vance has announced details of a UK and Ireland tour for January 2013. The 10-date tour will include a headline show at Islington Assembly Hall on Wednesday 23rd January. Foy's anticipated new album is also expected in early 2013, his first LP release since 'Hope' in 2007.
 Foy Vance's new EP 'Melrose' is out now on Communion Records. The ‘Melrose EP’ is a collaboration between Foy and acclaimed producer, David Holmes and is the score for Terry George's Academy Award winning film ‘The Shore’. Speaking of how his collaboration with Foy came about, David Holmes said: “I asked Foy because Terry George was looking for an Irish themed score and after reading the script and talking to Terry I felt that some of the songs would work brilliantly within the film along side some of the score that had already been created.
“I always thought Foy had a great voice but I had my own ideas in how he should be using it... softer, quieter with less force. After sending Foy a bunch of tracks that I hoped he would be influenced by he came to my studio and played me some songs he had written. The ones I liked and felt I could contribute to were recorded at my studio in Belfast and then finished in LA.”
One of the 'Melrose EP's stand out tracks 'Something In The Water' is currently available for free download from Communion's soundcloud here.
