news: Monday 22nd November 2010

Welsh rocker Funeral for A Friend have announced they will hit the road in spring next year with a string of dates at intimate venues to coincide with the release of the new album.

Vocalist Matt Davies-Kreye is excited to say the least, "Spring time is gonna be the time to lay waste to the UK good and proper! It's been too long since we've sauntered our way across the British Isles and with a bag full of ass kicking songs in tow this tour is going to blow people away!"

It's a chance for the band to maintain their personal connection with those who've supported them throughout the years and get in front of those fans who may not have had a chance to catch them live previously. Support on these dates will come from fast rising British band Rise To Remain who've just completed work on their debut album.

Funeral for A Friend recently unveiled a music video to accompany the track 'Serpents In Solitude' which featured on the band's recent 'The Young And Defenceless' EP. The track will also appear on the band's forthcoming album which is set to be released in March of next year.

Wed 16 March Arts Centre, Aberystwyth
