Leeds five-piece Four Day Hombre are set to release their first single through theirs-and-their-fans' own DIY label Alamo Music on 17th October.

Entitled ‘1000 Bulbs’, it's already been described as sounding like "Athlete if they ever went through puberty, or what Coldplay might have done if they invested a fraction of their marketing budget in amplification."

Their debut album is then expected to follow early next year. In the meantime, the band head out on tour for the rest of September and throughout October.

Dates are as follows:

September
19th Manchester Night And Day Cafe
21st Stoke Riggers Bar
22nd Leeds City Varieties
23rd London Islington Academy
24th Stockton Georgian Theatre
26th Wakefield Snooty Fox
28th Huddersfield University
29th Salisbury Spires
30th Swindon Riffs

October
1st Leeds Dr Wu's
2nd Hull New Adelphi
6th Hartlepool Fur
7th Carlisle Brickyard
10th Leeds The Faversham
11th London venue to be confirmed
12th Huddersfield Bar 1 Twenty
13th York Fibbers
14th Chester The Telford
20th Portsmouth Frog On The Front

blimey, I've played with these guys a few times and they're top blokes, however, they have been around for frikkin AGES and surely if they were any good, they would've released an album by now?

It's going to happen. There was some stuff on their site about the album - they've been abroad to record one - with the guy that produced Gemma Haynes and the The Frames.

Not really mate - though I personally find it difficult to describe. I've seen them loads - they are bloody good. I'm also on their mailing list and they've just posted their new video up online. Go to fourdayhombre.co.uk/video and have a look.

I heard that too. They mail you updates all the time - sounds like the album may be a belter.

if you people are loving the hombres, you should check out canadian band cities of dust - not alike at all musically, but also give 110% at every gig. oooh, they're just lovely, well, and ROCK obviously. www.myspace.com/citiesindust

another band from the north i detect a seachange in the musical demographic. Heard these live in session on Raw Talent 95.9fm in the Yorkshire region i will certainly be going to see them at the Adelphi in Hull on the 2nd Oct. They are certainly worth checking out live. Anyone else on here going.

I think these are extra lovely fellas and work VERY hard to do everything they can - most impressively organised with street teams and t shirts and demo sellers and mailing lists and websites and ALL of that - they have done everything you are SUPPOSED to do ...

I reckon they'll make it this time you know.

That new single is the best they've done and they've been touring like no tomorrow. They made the "what we're playing" in the NME and are on MTV2 rotation now so the signs are good. Ive seen them a couple of times in London and Leeds and they really do a good set.
Fingers crossed for FDH!!
