Hot on the heels of hitting the top five of NME'S 'Albums Of The Year' at the end of last year with their massively critically acclaimed 'Let's Stay Friends' album, Wichita Records and Les Savy Fav are please to announce the release of stand-out album track 'Patty Lee' as a single on February 25th and the welcome reissue of the 'Inches' album on March 10th.
Compiling all of the Les Savy Fav 7" singles that have been recorded over the last 5 years, 'Inches' features many songs that have been unavailable to even the most diehard fans and this 18 track compendium serves as the perfect introduction to Les Savy Fav as well as a much sought after piece by collectors.
In total it features nine seven inch singles released on 8 different labels and a magazine covermount (Monitor, Cold Crush, Tiger Style, DeSoto, Self-Starter Foundation, Sub Pop, Suicide Squeeze, X-Mist and Chunklet Magazine.)
The band are also set to return to the capital on February 10th for an appearance at the Astoria as part of the NME Awards Tour. Support from Future Of The Left, Los Campesinos! and Cut Off Your Hands
Tickets available from www.nme.com/gigs 0871 2200 260
