The Orwells Confirmed As Arctic Monkeys US Tour Support

Chicago upstarts The Orwells already have a 2014 diary full to the brim of riotous activities, the kind that’ll probably leave Mario Cuomo and co with bruised bodies and criminal records.

Not only are they due to play the Weezer Cruise (13th-17th February), they’ve also now been confirmed to support Sheffield’s finest, Arctic Monkeys, on their North American tour.

The Atlantic-signed five piece are confirmed to play nine dates in the US. Following that, they’ll be heading over to the UK to play some previously confirmed shows at Leeds’ Brudenell Social Club, Bristol Thekla and Brighton’s The Haunt, among others.
