We Are The Ocean have announced five additional UK shows in May.
The dates are added to their upcoming support tour with Lower Than Atlantis, and in addition to their standalone appearance at London’s Electric Ballroom.
By the time the headline shows take place, the Essex outfit have released fourth album Ark – the follow-up to 2012’s Maybe Today, Maybe Tomorrow is launched on May 11 via BMG Chrysalis.
The band say: “We’re doing some special shows in some of the sweatiest, eyeball to eyeball, in-your-face venues we’ve played for years.”
Frontman Liam Cromby recently said of their latest material: “We wanted to step out of our normal boundaries of imagination. I think we’ve surprised ourselves and will surprise our fans with what we’ve come up with.”
