They’ll follow Reading and Leeds sets with 18-date November run, featuring tracks from upcoming 2nd album

Lonely The Brave have confirmed an 18-date UK and European tour to follow their appearances at the Reading and Leeds festivals this weekend.

They’ll be accompanied by Black Peaks on the November run, in support of the Victory Edition of debut album The Day’s War.

Frontman David Jakes says: “These shows are a chance to really celebrate the last couple of years, and songs from the The Day’s War – but also a chance to play our fans a few of the new ones we’ve been working on.

“We’re also proud to be bringing Black Peaks out with us. They’re one of the most exciting British bands we’ve heard in a long time.”

Lonely The Brave release their single Control on August 28. Tour tickets go on sale via their website on September 4.
