One of our Twelvex12 artists, Friends have announced a (proper) UK tour! Sure, they announced a 3-date UK tour not long ago, but 3 dates doesn’t really count now, does it? With those three February dates now completely sold out, a 9-date tour has been revealed for May, spanning the UK and taking in The Great Escape festival. Tickets go on sale Friday from here.

The announcement comes on the day of release for single, ‘Friend Crush,’ a shimmering R&B-infused track that has had us obsessed since the first note. Out now on Lucky Number.
