Courteeners have announced a new UK tour, dubbed ‘The Whites Of Their Eyes’ tour, to mark 15 years since their first gig.
The band first played live at Manchester Roadhouse in October 2006 and they will hit the road a month after the anniversary of that show to mark the milestone.
“So in 2006, Taylor Swift arrived on the scene, Gnarls Barkley was ‘Crazy’, Guy Goma accidentally introduced himself to the world… and so did we,” Liam Fray said in a press release.
“We played our first gig at Manchester Roadhouse in October, 15 years ago. What a night to remember. I wish we actually could. Anyways, we thought we’d sort some very special shows to mark this momentous occasion so, we give you…The Whites of Their Eyes Tour. You’ll be able to see ours and we’ll be able to see yours. We’ve missed them X.”
Courteeners will play eight shows across England, kicking off in Lincoln on November 15 and concluding at London’s O2 Academy Brixton later that month.
