The Rifles Announce First Tour In Four Years With Original Line-Up

Tuesday, 16 July 2013 Written by Jon Stickler

Having shared the Hyde Park stage with British legends the Rolling Stones on the weekend, the Rifles have announced that they will tour for the first time in four years this November with their original line up.

Drawing Influences from bands such as the Clash and the Jam, the Rifles' own brand of mod-driven British rock will be showcased across the UK once again in November when the band play a 14-date UK tour.

A message and tour promo poster has been shared over at the band's official Facebook page.

"We are really proud to announce that we will be touring for the first time in Four years this November with our original line up, so welcome back Rob and Grant," they said.

"For those who were Lucky enough to be in Hyde Park last Saturday at the Rolling Stones Gig, you might have caught us playing an intimate Show in the Whiskey Bar. It was great to be back on stage with the boys, so thanks to everyone who packed out the tent, it was a scorcher.

"We have just been adding the finishing touches to the new album which will be released in October, exact date to be confirmed soon.

"Tickets for the tour will be on sale exclusively through our web store this July 17 at 9am and on general sale from July 18 via national and online ticket outlets."

As you can see from the band's message, exciting times are ahead with a brand new album slated for October. The new tour will see the band promoting the release of the new record. London rockers Life In Film and Dexters have been announced as special guests on the tour.
