Twin Atlantic have confirmed a forthcoming UK tour.

The band, who released their debut album 'Free' last year and are currently riding high on the Radio 1 A list, will play 12 dates across the UK and Ireland in April.

In a statement regarding the up-coming tour, the band have said: "Our tour at the end of 2011 was incredible but we feel like we still have room to grow. It's been a slow and steady race for us over the last few years and this tour will mark our 5 year anniversary as a band! The fans that we have gathered over that time is something we are really proud of and we can't wait to have you all, along with new intrigued human beings, in the same room again so we can experience the feeling that makes being in this band so damn exciting. Perhaps new music? Perhaps a bigger show? Perhaps exploding planets and flying cats dressed like babies? It's all a work in progress to make this our best tour yet! Ridiculous tour name to follow.
