Lightspeed Champion to tour UK in May, single, video
JoeDiddly by Luke Slater February 19th, 2010

Dev Hynes, a.k.a Lightspeed Champion, is one busy man, what with releasing albums, doing an absolute ton of videos and various other things. That's not about to change, you should be pleased to know, as he's just announced a UK tour for May, as well as another single from his current record Life Is Sweet! Nice To Meet You.

The single won't be released for a while yet, but it'll be 'Madame Van Damme' and will hit the shelves on May 10, on a variety of formats which are yet to be confirmed. Dev also recorded a 'TV show trailer'. Unsure of what it is? Look no further than under those tour dates.

Tour dates are as follows:

May:
1 - Leeds, Live at Leeds at Stylus
3 - Nottingham, Bodega

5 - Glasgow, King Tuts
6 - Manchester, Deaf Institute
7 - Newcastle, Cluny

9 - Birmingham, O2 Academy 3
10 - London, Heaven
11 - Portsmouth, Wedgewood Rooms

13 - Norwich, Arts Centre
14 - Bristol, Academy 2
15 - Cambridge, Haymakers
