The Cribs add Manchester date to UK tour

After having announced details of a short tour across the UK in February late last year, The Cribs have added a Manchester date to their plans.

The trio - who are set to follow 2012’s ‘In The Belly of the Brazen Bull’ with a sixth album early this year, will play the city’s The Ritz on 25th February.

This is in addition to shows in Nottingham, London, Portsmouth, Bristol, Birmingham, Glasgow and Sheffield.

The Cribs were also announced yesterday as performing this year’s Coachella festival in the States this April alongside headliners AC/DC, Jack White and Drake.

As reported last year, the band have been recording with The Cars’ Ric Ocasek - the man responsible for Weezer’s ‘Blue’ and ‘Green’ albums, plus last year’s ‘Everything Will Be Alright In The End’, and have a new home at Sony RED.
