The trials of van... you know, the four-wheeled type...? Whatever: Midlake tour
Mike_Diver by Mike Diver May 31st, 2006

Really really really really wonderfully lush indie types Midlake are to embark upon their first ever UK tour this summer, following a series of dates on the continent with The Flaming Lips.

The Texans release their new album, The Trials of Van Occupanther, next week, and it's barely budged from the DiS stereo since we've had our grubby hands on it. So, here's a suggestion, or two even: buy the album, then head to one of these do-not-miss shows...

June
23 London Wireless Festival
24 Leeds Wireless Festival
29 London 93 Feet East
30 Nottingham Social

July
1 Birmingham Bar Academy
3 Manchester Life Cafe
4 Glasgow King Tut's
5 Leeds The New Roscoe
6 Sheffield Leadmill
7 Brighton Hanbury Ballroom

The single 'Young Bride' is out now through Bella Union.
