Nothing quite like a bit of last minute tour action. Envy Corps have announced a string of dates starting on Saturday around the UK for two weeks - be sure to catch them, as frankly they deserve to be massive by the end of the year. Their new album, Dwell is out on Monday - read my review here.

Tickets are on sale now, priced around £5 - £6.

Saturday 26th April - London Astoria (with the Courteeners)
Sunday 27th April - Birmingham Bar Academy
Wednesday 30th April - London 229
Thursday 1st May - London 229
Friday 2nd May - Bath, Moles
Sunday 4th May - Brighton Freebut
Tuesday 6th May - Oxford Jericho Tavern
Wednesday 7th May - Bristol Fleece
Thursday 8th May - Cambridge Barfly
Friday 9th May - Peterbrough Met Lounge

Some of you may remember that last Wednesday I went to see Envy Corps at Water Rats in London, however they had to cancel the show suddenly.

Well, news has since emerged as to why they had to cancel so abruptly: guitarist Brandon had suffered a stroke. Only 30, he is expected to make a full recovery.

Our thoughts are with him and his family… so unexpected.
