The LaFontaines will join Don Broco on the road this spring.
The Scottish quartet will link up with the alt-rock band for the entirety of their UK and European tour dates, which kick off tonight in Dublin.
The LaFontaines have also shared a video for their next single, Armour, which was filmed during their headline show at Glasgow’s Barrowlands last November and features on their current album, 'Common Problem'. Speaking about the track, vocalist Kerr Okan said:
"Armour was the last song we recorded for 'Common Problem'. Two days before the record went to the mastering stage we were sitting with our originally planned 11-track album, but we just had a sense that something was missing. At this point I still felt like I had something left to say on the record. With Explosion, and Asleep I had opened and ended a conversation, but I hadn’t yet fully explained myself - Armour was the punch line. “Lost dreamers who bowed out with no merit/when life hits hard like a right hook they forget it.” Our producer Joe Cross [the Courteeners] added the vocal chops in the verse and it gave me something new to bounce off. The next day I drove down to Manchester to record the lead vocal."
Don Broco, meanwhile, are touring in support of their latest LP, 'Technology', which arrived in February.
