    TEENAGE FANCLUB Are Back!
    Live in Dublin & Belfast This May…

    Friday, May 6th at Mandela Hall, Belfast
    Saturday, May 7th at The Village, Dublin

    Brilliant Scots four-piece TEENAGE FANCLUB make a very welcome return when they release their new album, ‘Man-Made’, their first studio album since 2000’s ’Howdy!’ this May.

    As well as the brand new album, the Fannies (as they’re are affectionately known to their fans) bring with them a whole bucketload of timeless songs like ‘Star Sign’, ‘I Need Direction’, ‘What You Do To Me’, and ‘Sparky’s Dream’.

    Out Friday, May 13th in Ireland, ‘Man-Made’ was recorded in Chicago last year, with production duties handle by Tortoise’ John McEntire at his Soma Electronic Music Studios.

    A classic Fanclub record in every sense, it is also distinguished by being the first album release on the band’s own PeMa label (distributed by Vital).

    Pivotal in the development of many of today’s young gunslingers and hugely influential, Teenage Fanclub’s long awaited new album boasts more songs of wisdom, change & love. In tone and arrangement the record handsomely demonstrates the less is more maxim, being perhaps both airier and more light of touch than it’s immediate predecessors. Once again the record is equally split between Blake, Love and McGinley compositions and contains inspired musical touches and lyrical gems.

    TFC kicked off their touring with a stunning intimate show at London Scala last night (Tuesday) and follow it with Glasgow’s Mitchell Theatre this Thursday night.
