The Birmingham indie band released the record in 2009 as the follow-up to their 2007 debut ‘Love It When I Feel Like This’. It peaked at Number 20 in the official UK albums chart.
Today (July 30), The Twang confirmed that they’ll be hitting the road this winter for a run of special headline shows. The group are set to play ‘Jewellery Quarter’ in full “plus all the favourites and a few surprises” at the forthcoming dates.
