Rival State detail summer shows

Rival State have announced they’ll play seven dates across the UK next month.

The London-based New Zealand outfit will headline several dates and will also join Young Guns in Newcastle on July 11 and Fearless Vampire Killers in Bicester on July 17.

The gigs are in support of their Gutter Mouth EP which has just been released. The shows will follow their appearance at this weekend’s British Summer Time Festival at London’s Hyde Park and come on the back of their performance at Download earlier this month.

Gutter Mouth is available via iTunes and Amazon.
