Idlewild announce Irish headliners

Idlewild are Ireland-bound in April for shows in the Dublin Ambassador (28) and Belfast Mandela Hall (29).

Prior to that comes the February 18 release of 'Love Steals Us From Loneliness', their new single which has more than a hint of the Michael Stipes about it. It's also notable for being the first Idlewild record to feature ex-Turn bassist Gavin Fox.

Recorded in LA with Beck producer Tony Hoffer, it's culled from the quartet's Warnings/Promises album, which follows on March 4 and is set to get an almighty push in the States where they toured last summer with Pearl Jam.
