Toy Announce UK Tour

Previously unreleased tracks and 6 Music session to feature on the single release of My Heart Skips A Beat

Toy have announced that they will be setting out to serate ears nationwide on a UK tour.

Having sold out London’s Heaven last year, they’ll be filling the decidedly more cavernous setting of the O2 in support of, erm, The Vaccines, in May, following a spot at the Scala for the NME Awards Show next month – here are the dates in full:

FEBRUARY

Tue 12 – Scala, London

MAY

Wed 1 – Winter Gardens, Margate

Thu 2 – The O2, London

Sat 4 – Sands Centre, Carlisle

Sun 5 – Millennium Square, Leeds

Mon 6 – Cymru Arena, Llandudno

They’ve also announced that the next single to come off last year’s self-titled debut LP will be ‘My Heart Skips A Beat’, which will feature a pair of previously unreleased cuts, ‘She’s Over My Head’ and ‘Layered Electronics’, as well as a BBC 6 Music session version of album closer ‘Kopter’ recorded for Lauren Laverne. The single will be released on 12" vinyl and download via Heavenly on March 12.
