“I remember standing by that amazing old mixing desk at Heliocentric Studios where we made Hopes and Fears, listening to an early mix of 'Somewhere Only We Know.' I had this feeling that we’d come up with something that had an extra bit of magic," says lead singer Tom Chaplin. "Making music is so often a process full of doubt…but on this occasion there was something undeniable about what we’d created. Clearly a lot of people felt the same when the album came out!”

The band also take to the road this year to embark on a full world tour. Ireland and UK dates will include two shows at London’s O2 Arena on 10 and 11 May, followed by a performance in Dublin’s 3Arena on 13 May. Tickets are available now via Ticketmaster. The concerts will also feature special guests  The Lathums across the UK and The Sherlocks in Dublin and mainland Europe.
