Ahead of the release of their debut album, Native Speaker - which gets a 4/5 rating in the current issue of Q - and after taking SXSW by storm, Canadian avant-pop darlings Braids have announced a tour of the UK this May, including two gigs in London and Manchester with The Antlers.
It's the first time four-piece will be heading over to these shores, and judging by the buzz around them, it'll also be the last chance to catch them at these relatively intimate venues.
The dates are as follows:
MAY
12th - London - Heaven w/The Antlers
13th - Manchester - Club Academy w/The Antlers
14th - Brighton - Great Escape
14th - Brighton - Great Escape
16th - Berlin - Levee
21st - Liverpool - Sound City
22nd - Glasgow - Captains Rest
23rd - Leeds - Cockpit
24th - London - Lexington
26th - Cambridge - Haymakers
27th - Oxford - Jericho
