James Ferraro, formerly one half of the Skaters, writer of deep and meditative guitar fuzz, sarcastic pop provocateur and recent digital convert, has announced a short run of dates in the UK and Ireland next month. Calling at London, Glasgow and Dublin, the tour comes as part of a longer European tour, and coincides with Ferraro's shift towards a new pseudonym, Bodyguard (even since the release of last year's Far Side Virtual, he's also found the time to release two mixtapes, one as BEBETUNE$, one as Bodyguard). It also comes after his autotuned-to-hell recent single 'Raiden'/'Sex With Axe' - you can listen to the latter below. Ferraro's mission, as ever, remains inscrutable. Tour dates below the embed.

JUNE:
16th - Dublin, The Joinery
17th - Glasgow, The Berkeley Suite
18th - London, Birthdays
