The Irish new wave band will play at the Academy Thursday, December 14th, just one year after their gig there last Christmas.

The power pop group will be playing old favorites as well as songs from their hit new album Modernised. They are also set to record a new EP this September, and hope to release it in time for the December gig.

Tickets go on sale at tomorrow at 9am.
