The Delays announce Irish tour

With a new album due for release this autumn, The Delays have announced a series of Irish dates.

The Hot Press Newsdesk, 16 Jun 2005

The Delays have announced a four-date Irish tour, including an intimate performance at Dublin’s The Village on October 8.

The Southampton quintet first came to public attention when their single ‘Long Time Coming’ reached the UK Top 20 in January 2004.

They are currently in the studio recording their second album, the follow-up to last year’s Faded Seaside Glamour. The record is due for release this autumn, so its arrival may coincide with this set of gigs.

The full list of dates for the tour is: October 5 at Spring And Airbrake (Belfast); October 6 at The Nerve Centre (Derry); October 7 at Róisín Dubh (Galway) and October 8 at The Village (Dublin).

Tickets for The Village gig are €17.50, contact the Derry, Galway and Belfast venues for specific details of those concerts.

For some reason, Delays always sound a lot better when the sun comes out so Hideaway couldn’t have arrived at a better time. The apparent electro direction of ‘Valentine’ has been ditched for a return to the guitars, yet this is still as bright and shiny as a new pin. In many ways it is the kind of both song and record that you might hear from one of the manufactured pop brigade – but that is by no means a criticism.

Indie golden boys Delays are back – and they’ve gone all shiny and techno on us. But then that’s what happens when you make a record with produer-to-the-stars Trevor Horn.

In a manner befitting their name, various setbacks and the loss of over a hundred demos have meant the follow up to the Delays’ widely under-rated 2004 debut has endured a difficult birth. The wait, however, has been worth it.

There’s something reassuringly real about Delays. They’ve kicked around the dreary provinces (in their case Southampton), gigged every toilet in the UK, supported Ocean Colour Scene and released a string of singles that have inched their way towards the bottom end of the Top 40.
