Due to huge demand for tickets, Seattle folksters Fleet Foxes have announced details of a second date at London’s HMV Hammersmith Apollo, which will follow the previously-announced gig on 31st May. The new date will take place the next night on 1st June.
Fleet Foxes recently announced details of their second album ‘Helplessness Blues’, which is due to be released on 2nd May to coincide with the start of their upcoming North American tour. The album is the successor to their 2008 eponymous debut, which reached Number Three in the UK Album Chart. ‘Helplessness Blues’ is produced by the band and Phil Ek, who worked with them on ‘Fleet Foxes’ and has previously produced albums for Les Savy Fav, The Shins and Band of Horses.
The new London live dates will end a month of touring for Fleet Foxes, who will kick-off their North American tour dates in Vancouver on 30th April. In addition to the London shows, the band will also play a number of dates throughout Europe.
