Idlewild Announce World Tour!
"A Grateful Dead-like grace which could be their best work so far." - The Independent
"...their best album yet." - The Times
“…a genre-traversing, surprising, melodic, poetic, anthemic record with heart, smarts and soul.” - Drowned in Sound
Idlewild are wrapping up 2015 by heading out on a 16 date world tour, covering the UK, USA and Japan, with The Jaguar Club joining them as support on the US leg of their tour. The band are also set to release single Utopia on November 27th, the perfect bookend to a successful year.
The band have had an amazing year so far, with album Everything Ever Written reaching number 20 in the UK Charts and gaining a spot on the SAY Awards longlist. The album has been championed in the press by the likes of The Independent, The Times, Guardian, Drowned in Sound, Q, Kerrang!, The Skinny and many others.
Canadian actor Jay Baruchel (How To Train Your Dragon, This Is The End, Robocop) was also invited to star in the video for Every Little Means Trust, the third single taken from the album, after the band discovered he was a longtime fan. The video is now available to watch via the band's YouTube channel.
