Manchester ready for Frat attack

18th Aug 2008

Happy-go-lucky indie popsters The Fratellis are to return to Manchester later this year to kick off a pre-Christmas tour of the UK.

The Glaswegians - who release charity single Look Out Sunshine later this month - will play the Manchester Academy 1 venue on November 25th as they look to round off another successful year.

From there, the band will take their exuberant live shows to Norwich, Sheffield, Leeds, Swindon and Wolverhampton - among others - as well as playing two dates at the London Roadhouse on December 14th and 15th.

They finish up back in Glasgow at the Warehouse for a festive celebration on December 20th.

The band have just finished a successful Australian tour, where Jon, Mince and Barry played to sell-out crowds in Perth, Sydney and Melbourne.

On Friday (August 22nd), The Fratellis will join the likes of Biffy Clyro, Dizzee Rascal and Anti-Flag on the main stage at Reading Festival.
