Maximo Park are returning to the live fray with three dates in June, in Birmingham, Manchester, and London. These shows will provide an opportunity to see the band preview new material from their forthcoming album The National Health in intimate surroundings.
They will also be releasing the first single 'Hips and Lips' on June 11th on V2 from their much anticipated new album, The National Health.

A reverberant and atmospheric remix of 'Hips and Lips' by Scottish electronic rock outfit Errors has also been available for free download via Soundcloud.
