Prides to unveil US EP ‘Higher Love’

The Scottish synthpop trio achieved much success with their debut EP ‘The Seeds You Sow’ in February 2014, quickly garnering overseas attention and embarking on a US tour while also making an appearance at the prestigious SXSW Festival in Austin. Now they’re spectacularly returning to the States with a special EP release just for them, alongside some new headline dates. ‘Higher Love’ features four tracks; two from ‘The Seeds You Sow’ (the title single and ‘Messiah’, which they originally performed at the 2014 Commonwealth Games), their ‘FIFA 15’ video game soundtrack song ‘Out of the Blue’ and, of course, title single ‘Higher Love’.

The Glasgow band; who are singer Stewart Brock, guitarist Callum Wiseman and drummer Lewis Gardiner; will follow up the release with four headline dates in New York, San Francisco, San Diego and Los Angeles in May, but not before their UK tour with Kiezsa this month which will see them perform at London’s O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire on March 24th. They will also return to the UK after their American run for Dot to Dot Festival in Manchester, Bristol and Nottingham. This Summer, they’ll be performing alongside The Horrors and Little Dragon at Standon Calling in Hertfordshire.

‘Higher Love’ EP is set for release on May 12th 2015.
