Codeine Velvet Club announce tour dates

Codeine Velvet Club is a new musical collaboration featuring Jon Lawler – lead singer and chief songwriter of The Fratellis – and singer-songwriter Lou Hickey, that celebrates their shared love of '60s girl-boy duets, dramatic orchestral pop, and dark post-war Hollywood and Las Vegas romanticism.

"Soaring strings, biting brass, sweet as sugar guitar licks and a healthy dose of noir drama… Add the kind of retro glamour that conjures up late nights in Vegas or Hollywood, stir in the kind of songwriting that oozes class and sophistication then freight in a few world-beating pop hooks. That's the recipe for the sensational new sound of Codeine Velvet Club"
News Of The World, Scotland 13th Sept. '09

Since their fantastically well reviewed debut headline shows in Glasgow at the Classic Grand and at London's Bush Hall Codeine Velvet Club are heading out on a full UK tour throughout November and December to coincide with their releases.

"This may well turn out to be one of those evenings where, if everybody who claims they were there actually was, the venue would have had to be the size of Hall 4 at the SECC!"
