The View announce comeback tour

The View are set to embark on a UK tour which will take in 25 dates

The View have announced plans for a UK comeback tour next month.

The Dundee four-piece have lined up 35 dates with the first show kicking off at Dunfermline Velocity on 16 October.

Tickets for the gigs will be available on pre-sale on 3 September before they go on sale to the public two days later.

The band are also set to release new single, 5Rebbeccas, which is taken from their forthcoming second album, on 27 October.

The record will feature three new b-sides - Dun Deal and Mr Men Book and For You.

Other tracks slated to appear on the new album, which is due out next year, include Jimmy's Crazy Conspiracy, Glass Smash, One Off Pretender, Shock Horror and Temptation Dice.

But for an appearance at this year's V Festival, The View have been fairly quiet over the last year with the group recording the follow-up to their debut Hats Off To The Buskers in Wales.

Owen Morris, who worked on their previous record, is taking up production duties for the second time.

Their debut album has sold in excess of 300,000 copies.
