The Staves begin a nine-city tour across the UK and Ireland with a sold-out show at Gorilla in Manchester tonight. The tour includes additional headline shows at venues in Belfast, Galway, Limerick, Glasgow, Barrow-in-Furness, and Brighton, as well as sets at the Forbidden Fruit Festival in Dublin and Bushstock Festival in London. The trio spoke with BBC Radio 6 Music’s Radcliffe & Maconie about their return to the UK and their time living in the States; you can listen here. See below for all the tour details; for the latest, visit nonesuch.com/on-tour. The trio returns to the States for the Eaux Claires and Funhouse festivals in June.

The UK and Irish tour follows the release of the digital double A Side Tired As Fuck / Train Tracks earlier this year. You can download the two songs on iTunes and the Nonesuch Store now and add them to a suitable playlist of your making on Spotify and Apple Music.

The Watford–born sisters, now based in Minneapolis—Emily (vocals, synth), Jessica (vocals, guitar, keyboards), and Camilla (vocals, guitar, ukulele) Staveley-Taylor—have spent the last year touring North America extensively. The band's new live show has received rave reviews, and sold out venues across the continent in cities including New York, LA, Toronto, and Boston. DIY magazine says: "There's no showy stagecraft on show, yet the whole room is smitten." Other than a return to London's Royal Festival Hall last summer to play at Guy Garvey's Meltdown, this will be the first time for audiences on that side of the Atlantic to see the band's new four-piece setup.
