Having sold out London’s The O2 arena in 3 hours, The 1975 have announced additional dates to their December UK arena tour, including a highly anticipated debut at the Metro Radio Arena Newcastle, Saturday 17th December 2016.
The new shows will form part of a series of concerts that will be toured worldwide, with expanded visuals and a brand new set list including songs that have never been played live. The 1975’s constantly evolving performance will fuse art and technology to create a unique live experience.
News of the tour comes with the Manchester quartet sharing the video to new single ‘Somebody Else’, which will be released on 19th August and is taken from their critically acclaimed US & UK #1 new album, ‘I like it when you sleep, for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it’.
Picking up where the ‘A Change Of Heart’ video left off, ‘Somebody Else’ continues to see the band taking their unique aesthetic to new heights. Written by Matthew Healy and directed by Tim Mattia, the video follows Healy through the murky world of a Lynchian night-time London; struggling with self obsession in the face of heart-break.
The 1975’s new album ‘I like it when you sleep, for you are so beautiful yet so unaware of it’ is out now on Dirty Hit.
