US punk rock act Screaming Females have revealed details of their debut UK tour for the Autumn, taking in five live shows, including a show at The Luminaire in London on October 27th.
The hard working band, hailing from New Jersey, toured relentlessly in support of their critically acclaimed third album 'Power Move' in 2009. Their commitment landed them spots opening for Dinosaur Jr., Throwing Muses, and Jay Reatard, plus dates touring with Arctic Monkeys and the Dead Weather.
The year brought them to a wider mainstream consciousness, gaining attention for their punk rock sensibilities and their raucous live shows driven by front woman Marissa Paternoster's famed guitar heroics.
"Power Move was the first record that a lot of people had heard by us, and after that came out a lot of people had the same reaction, 'that Marissa is a woman who can play guitar solos,'" says drummer Jarrett Dougherty. "But we are more than just that simplistic observation and I think this record shows that."
Don't miss them when they play their debut UK shows in October.
Screaming Female Tour Dates are as follows:
27-Oct London The Luminaire
28-Oct Glasgow Captain's Rest
29-Oct York Stereo
30-Oct Manchester Islington Mill
31-Oct Brighton Freebutt
