17 dates this October.
With the weather so wonderful outside, all thoughts right now are probably on the summer festivals ahead but, looking beyond, there are some fine autumnal gigs already lined up. Here's the latest addition: after playing chief support to Ed Sheeran in Croke Park on July 24-25, Bell X1 are heading out on an acoustic tour around the country.
The trio have been hard at work on the follow-up to 2013's Choice Music Prize-nominated Chop Chop so the jaunt will offer them a chance to get out of the studio and play career-spanning, stripped-back sets for the fans throughout the month of October.
