Friendly Fires tease new material

After tweaking their social media profiles last week, leading people to believe a return was on the cards, Friendly Fires have now unveiled some new material and a comeback show for 2018.

The band have remained inactive musically since their 2011 album 'Pala', but have now shared a short snippet of music on their Facebook page, and announced a show at London's Brixton Academy for the 5th April next year. Fans are also being encouraged to sign up for the pre-sale release of tickets to the show, which you can do by clicking here and registering before 3PM on Tuesday 26th September.
