Tour: Lovvers embark on winter-long fling
TheBoyDeadly by TheBoyDeadly January 8th, 2008
and Lucy Johnston

Lovvers are in it for the long haul, distracting themselves from the winter at hand by closing eyes, stamping feet and playing shows ‘til the gloom’s more liable to lift.

The Nottingham beat combination arrive in Sheffield on the 31st of May, whereupon they’ll take on this mammoth whatever:

February
1 London 229 *
2 Cardiff Clwb Ifor Bach *
3 Worcester The Firefly
4 Wolverhampton Little Civic *
11 London Rough Trade
13 London Barfly

16 Southampton Joiners

23 Birmingham Jug of Ale

25 Glasgow King Tuts
26 York Fibbers

The band’s third 7” release, entitled ‘Laughing Man’/‘Search For Gold’ isn’t supposed to be available until the 28th of January, but you can sneak one now, direct from the Jonson Family Records site.
