Turin Brakes are heading to Ullapool for the final weekend of September. They once again play Loopallu alongside a selection of other musical acts. The band confirmed on Facebook this is the only Scottish date they’re playing this Summer, ahead of the new album that should be released early 2018. So it might be nice to get out there. Last time I visited Ullapool I lay on the beach there in my Ether Site t-shirt. It was many moons ago but it was sunny. So yea, there’s that.

Tickets are available here. This year marks the last time the Loopallu festival is being organized, so let’s hope our guys can give them a good farewell :).

While recording of #TB8, the eight Turin Brakes album has begun in Rockfield Studios, Turin Brakes have announced the third and final Lost Property tour. This one sees the band going far and wide in the UK, with dates in towns such as Malvern and Clitheroe, in addition to dates in Liverpool and Gloucester. Tickets available here.

Also, the band have confirmed an appearance as part of Kultursommer in Oldenburg, Germany on 30 June 2017. Not sure how you get tickets, but there’s more info here.

Universal Music have cancelled the upcoming vinyl box set featuring the first four Turin Brakes albums. The reasons for these are unclear, however, according to sources close to the band, this was a decision not made by the band themselves. Turin Brakes are, however, still playing the ‘secret’ gig celebrating the music from this Turin Brakes era. This is very good news for people who already made travel arrangements.

Tickets for the gig, taking place at the iconic 100 Club in London on 29 April go on sale tomorrow 9 am and are very limited. Fans who purchased tickets with the box set will have to buy them again in a special presale which is live now.
