Reverend & The Makers announce headline tour and Chilli Peppers support

Reverend & The Makers has announced an extensive headline tour of the UK in October following the quick sell out of their dates in May.

These shows will be in support of the band's third album, entitled '@reverend_makers', scheduled for release on 18th June 2012. It is also the first commercial album to be named after an artist's Twitter tag.

They will also be supporting Red Hot Chilli Peppers at Knebworth Park and Sunderland's Stadium Of Light this summer and playing a series of festival dates in the UK – details below.

Frontman Jon McClure said "Made up to play live again with the Makers! Been way too long. And after we've been on tour with Noel we should be super on it! Dancefloor goodness! See ya there x"
