Yard Act announce UK tour for spring 2024. Coming to Glasgow’s O2 Academy on 15th March 2024.
The Leeds band shared their new single and video ‘The Trench Coat Museum’ in the summer of 2023. Co-produced by the band and Gorillaz member Remi Kabaka Jr.. The standalone single was the first original music that Yard Act had shared since the release of their critically acclaimed, Mercury Prize-shortlisted debut album, The Overload, in January 2022. ‘The Trench Coat Museum’ was added to the BBC Radio 6 Music A-List upon release. And sparked feverish discussion about the band’s next exciting full-length project, slated for 2024
Yard Act opened the main stage at Reading & Leeds Festival in 2023. As well as making appearances at Latitude (headlining the BBC Sounds stage), Fuji Rocks and Boardmasters Festival. The band will return to North America in November 2023 with a run of headline shows across the US. Culminating in a slot at Mexico City’s Corona Capital Festival.
In early 2023, Yard Act delivered an unprecedented five-night residency at their hometown’s Brudenell Social Club. Which was awarded four stars each in reviews from Rolling Stone UK, The Telegraph, and The Times. The band were joined by a stellar lineup of comedians; Phill Jupitus, Nish Kumar, Lolly Adefope, and Harry Hill. Yard Act also made their festival headline bow at Dot To Dot in Bristol and Nottingham, performed at Primavera (Barcelona, Madrid and Porto). They played their maiden shows in Australia and New Zealand in the same year, making their mark on the global stage.
