Broadcast confirm UK December tour

We can exclusively reveal that Broadcast have announced their first UK tour in over five years, with shows taking in the Warp20 event in London and a gig apiece in Wales and Scotland. Hooray!

They've recently returned from a co-headlining tour with Bradford Cox's Atlas Sound and are currently in the process of releasing their collaborative mini-album Broadcast and The Focus Group Investigate Witch Cults of the Radio Age, which is out now digitally and out physically on October 26. The Focus Group part of that project, if you're wondering, is Julian House, a old friend of the band who also happens to be the co-founder of the Ghost Box label.

Here are the dates they'll be playing:

December:

5 - London, Warp20 @ the Coronet Tickets
6 - Bristol, The Cube Tickets
7 - Cardiff, Chapter Arts Centre Tickets
8 - Manchester, Deaf Institute Tickets
9 - Glasgow, Stereo Tickets

On the above tour Broadcast will be performing as a duo - Trish Keenan and James Cargill, obviously - with the set including work from the soundtrack to Winter Sun Wavelengths, some tracks from Witch Cults.... There's also a tour-only EP available to snap up, entitled Microtronics Vol I & II.

The promo videos from this album

Are really, really good. Just wanted to mention it.

Haven't they always had good visuals and stuff?

For live shows and the like? Just what i've heard. Really want to go to the warp thing.

yes, great visuals

but this promo video is something else.
that Julian House is right talented.

is it to do with needing a screen of some sort?

I suspect it is, can't really imagine them doing it at the MAC!

Alternatively...

They'll have a *new* tour EP "Mother Is The Milky Way", & a few copies of the *old* tour EPs "Microtronics" Vols. 1 & 2
