The Fratellis announce winter tour (2008)
Story by Jack Foley
THE Fratellis have announced a series of autumn dates through November and December, including two nights at London’s Roundhouse.
Tickets for the shows are available exclusively through www.fratellis.com from August 17 until August 23, as well as a very special digital bundle of the new single Look Out Sunshine, featuring the previously unreleased track Nobody’s Favourite Actor and two live tracks from their roof-raising set at this year’s T In The Park.
The proceeds from Look Out Sunshine, which topped Q Magazine’s “50 Essential Tracks You Need To Download” back in June, will be donated to the Teenage Cancer Trust’s campaign to raise £350,000 for a new unit at the Royal Hospital for Sick Children in Yorkhill, Glasgow.
The Fratellis have already gone gold with Here we stand, and stormed Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage in front of 100,000 revellers, so act fast to be sure to catch them on their forthcoming UK tour.
