After rounding out 2016 with an infectious grin and swooning choruses, Honeyblood have announced details of their largest UK headline tour to date – along with a live-sampling new video for ‘Babes Never Die’
Finding the band hitting the road, mucking around with cheeky ghosts and more – it’s an insight into a 2016 that saw the duo strike gold with latest album ‘Babes Never Die’, with the title track getting the full tour diary video to mark it.
Speaking about the clip, Stina Tweeddale from the band said:
“This video has such a special significance to us. It was filmed over three months of shows throughout the US and UK. It’s a real snapshot of that tour and what it’s like for us on the road.”
Honeyblood are set for a pretty busy 2017 on that road too, with a huge new batch of UK headline tour dates in the bag – heading around Ireland, Scotland and then England with 17 dates confirmed (including a previously announced big one at London’s KOKO on June 16th.)
This comes alongside previously confirmed festival slots at Wales Goes Pop, Hit The North, Live At Leeds, Handmade, Deer Shed and Kendal Calling – so if you manage to miss Honeyblood live this year then you must live in a cave (though they’ll probably come and play that for ya too).
