Leeds-based duo Kamikaze Girls have announced they will add to their increasingly busy live schedule for this year as they join Gnarwolves on their forthcoming May 2017 UK tour alongside Rough Hands and Thrownups. Tickets are on sale now from www.gnawrolves.com
Vocalist Lucinda Livingstone commented on the news: “It’s been ages since we toured so I think we’re both really looking forward to getting back on the road since we came back from America last November. We both love Gnarwolves so were really happy when Thom invited us to do this one with them.”
The pair will release their forthcoming debut album Seafoam on 9th June 2017. Preorders are live now at www.bsmrocks.com
The band also recently revealed a stint of June 2017 UK tour dates with Watford indie-punks Nervus as well as a string of festival appearances including The Great Escape, 2000 Trees and Truck Festival to name just a few (full details below).

Welcomed with open arms into the UK’s burgeoning and ever-developing DIY/punk scene with their 2016 EP SAD, and counting the likes of Petrol Girls, Personal Best, Great Cynics and The Winter Passing as not just contemporaries, but comrades, with Seafoam the band are firmly placed to deliver a record that both underpins their roots, and takes giant leaps forward in the quality and substance of their output.
Following a groundswell of early support for the duo from the likes of Clash Magazine, She Shreds, Rock Sound, Drowned In Sound, Upset, Louder Than War, Nerdist and Punktastic, 2017 looks set to take things up a gear for Kamikaze Girls. Sad girls to the front.
