Blaenavon reschedule UK & Irish tour dates

Blaenavon have annouced that they’re to reschedule a slew of upcoming UK tour dates.

The shows, which were set to stretch throughout May, have been postponed, according to a statement, because “we just needed a bit of extra time to get up to scratch”.

The band will still play their three scheduled festival dates next month though, at Liverpool Sound City, Hit The North in Newcastle and at Brighton’s Great Escape.

Blaenavon returned earlier this year with new single ‘Catatonic Skinbag’.
