Wakefield indie rockers The Cribs have unveiled dates for a handful of UK live shows in May.
The Cribs recently uncovered further details of their forthcoming fifth studio album, their first record as three-piece since 2007’s ‘Men's Needs, Women's Needs, Whatever’. The new record, which is the follow up to 2009’s ‘Ignore The Ignorant’, is currently running under the name ‘In the Belly of a Brazen Bull’, and is set to hit shelves later this year. The band have worked with Flaming Lips and MGMT producer Dave Fridmann as well as Steve Albini, who’s worked with Jarvis Cocker and Nirvana.
The band have been working on the new record since former Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr decided to leave the band. Guitarist Ryan Jarrman told NME: “Working with Johnny was something I really enjoyed. But what it's made me realise is that this is the way it's meant to be. I liked the last record and it was a progression, but there was something lost in translation. It was something indefinable – but it's back.”
The band will be showcasing their new material when they play a string of live UK dates starting later this month. Today the trio have confirmed another run of live shows for May.
The Cribs UK & Ireland Tour Dates are as follows:
Feb 28th - University of London Union, London
Mar 1st - Liquid Rooms, Edinburgh
Mar 2nd - Concorde 2, Brighton
Mar 3rd - Metropolitan University, Leeds
May 7th – Nottingham, Rock City
