The Slow Readers Club have announced their fourth album and a spring UK tour.
'The Joy Of The Return' is scheduled to arrive on March 20 via Modern Sky UK and will feature the lead single All I Hear, a slice of indietronica that pairs driving drums with infectious guitars. The album was recorded at Parr Street Studios in Liverpool and produced by long-standing collaborator Phil Bulleyment. Singer Aaron Starkie said:
"I think it's definitely our most interesting and accomplished record musically. Lyrically the album covers love, alienation, the rise of right wing populism and comments on algorithm driven propaganda. And as always, I try to deliver those lyrics with uplifting melody."
The Manchester band will support the record with an extensive UK and European tour. Tickets go on general sale at 11am on January 24.
The band also play a handful of previously announced Irish shows in February.
