The Libertines have announced details of a 2017 tour of UK seaside towns. Check out full dates and ticket details below.
While the band are currently working on the follow-up their acclaimed comeback album ‘Anthems For Doomed Youth‘ while looking for a ‘hotel’ to set up their own recording studio and HQ. Now, to follow a summer of festival dates, the band will hit the road for a run of shows in UK coastal towns for the ‘Tiddeley Om Pom Pom Tour’ – including a headline show at By The Sea festival in Margate.
“We’re looking for a home, one roof for the many splendoured trappings of Arcady, a factory, with a guest house, bar and studio,” Carl Barat of what 2017 has in store. “We do like to be beside the seaside and we hope to find that home on this tour… watch this space…”
