TOUR STARTS THURSDAY 17 MAY: Pull Tiger Tail came roaring into 2007 with new single, 'Let's Lightning', and support dates with Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly, We Are Scientists and Pigeon Detectives. Now they are on yet another mighty tour of the UK, stopping off at a few of the festivals on the way. This is set to be their year as the maverick alt-pop trio will be able to claim the world and his cat as their best mates. Pull Tiger Tail are Marcus Ratcliff (lead vocals / guitar / keyboards / stuff), Jack Hamson (drums / backing vocals) and Davo McConville (bass / backing vocals / keyboards / more stuff), an early-twenties trio of adopted Londoners. Together they inhabit a world where Gerald Durrell, Daft Punk, Aristotle and Debbie Harry are just a few of their many gods. The trio combine musical ambition with a DIY aesthetic, creating modern day anthems. with lyrics that explore the idea of turning negative traits into positive ones by becoming the best bad person you can be (and rendering decades of self-help literature pointless in the process), 'Let's Lightning' rides on waves of chiming guitars, rolling drums and a surging chorus, to one almighty climax. Dates are as follows: May 17 – Cardiff Coal Exchange (NME Tour) May 18 – Northampton Roadmender (NME Tour) May 19 – Sheffield Plug (NME Tour) May 21 – Middlesbrough Empire (NME Tour) May 22 – Glasgow Arches (NME Tour) May 23 – Edinburgh Liquid Rooms (NME Tour) May 24 – Manchester Club Academy (NME Tour) May 26 – Nottingham Rescue Rooms (NME Tour) May 27 – Dot To Dot Festival, Nottingham May 28 – Birmingham Academy 2 (NME Tour) May 29 – London Koko (NME Tour) May 30 – Brighton Concorde 2 (NME Tour) May 31 – Norwich Waterfront (NME Tour) June 5 – World Environment Day Trust, Koko London June 8 – Popstarz, Scala, Kings Cross, London June 11 – Newcastle Academy 2 June 12 – Glasgow Barfly June 13 – Manchester Night & Day June 14 – York Fibbers June 15 – Leeds Cockpit June 17 – Bristol Academy June 18 – Wolverhampton Little Civic June 20 – Southampton Joiners June 21 – London Islington Bar Academy July 14 – Guilfest, Guilford August 5 – Electric Gardens Festival, Kent August 10 – Underage Festival, Victoria Park, East London August 11 - Underage Festival, Victoria Park, East London
