Following the release of album, The Futureheads will embark on a short six-date UK tour in February and March 2025 calling in at London, Bristol, Manchester, Nottingham, Leeds and Newcastle.
Vocalist/guitarist Barry Hyde says: “We are delighted to be working with Cherry Red to release this singles collection; they are a label we have admired for many years and this album feels like a landmark and crossing point in our time together as band.
“We are looking forward to hitting the road in 2025 to celebrate its release and will use the experience as a pivot point from which we can jump into new creative activities and move forward together as an artistic force.”
Ross Millard adds: “Putting this singles collection together is really exciting for us as a band - it’s a chance to honour the records we’ve made and celebrate these songs with our fans. I know albums like this can serve as a portal for new audiences too - a collection of singles is a great entry-point to the band. We can’t wait to tour it in 2025 as well.”
