We Are Scientists will be in the UK in April and May to play some shows in the wake of the release of their fifth studio album, ‘Helter Selzer’, on 22 Apr.

Commenting on the shows, frontman Keith Murray said: “I’m excited to bust these new songs out for the UK fans. I worry about them when we’re gone – many of them have a damn hard time taking care of themselves”.

Bassist Chris Cain added: “It’s always great to get back in the venue, since playing music is fun. Of course, everything is fun – eating dinner, going to movies, operating a motor vehicle. It’s all great, but certainly music is right up there”.

It certainly is. Here are those dates:

24 Apr: Bristol, Bierkeller
25 Apr: Nottingham, Rescue Rooms
26 Apr: Newcastle, Riverside
27 Apr: Birmingham, Library
29 Apr: Leicester, Handmade Festival
30 Apr: Live At Leeds Festival
1 May: Glasgow, Stag & Dagger Festival
3 May: Manchester, Academy 2
4 May: London, Koko
