Tour dates for Trashcan Sinatras announced

**Matt D**

In the five years since we last heard a full album from Trashcan Sinatras, things have been looking up. After two decades in the business the guys behind the 1990’s GO! Discs albums Cake, I’ve Seen Everything, A Happy Pocket and 2004’s Weightlifting have decided to throw caution to the wind, fall in love and get happy.

With a triumphant Fujirock Festival, Japan appearance and 18 date US tour under their belts this July / August, the band can't wait to play their first UK dates for 4 years and from the critical response neither can we! A string of live UK dates are confirmed with more to be announced. Current dates are: Nov 12th – Glasgow / Nov 13th – Kelso / Nov 14th – Edinburgh / Nov 16th – Aberdeen /Nov 18th – Nottingham / Nov 19th - London Bloomsbury Ballroom.

Combining smooth melodies with wry bittersweet lyrics, the new songs – full of relaxed harmonies, typical Trashcans – were set to arrangements in a back room in the South Side of Glasgow over the summer of 2007. Just over twenty years after first gigging in Glasgow the last two decades have seen the band conquer the musical landscape on both sides of the Atlantic with their blend of Caledonian melody and harmony.

People is the third single taken from the bands fifth studio album In The Music and builds on the mass of trans-Atlantic plaudits the band have received throughout their career. The single will also be supported by a national video release. Last year saw the band release the first single Oranges and Apples, a song inspired by the late, great Syd Barrett with all proceeds from the download only single going to the Syd Barrett charitable trust.

The band have also announced the following tour -
