Detroit Social Club, Tiffany Page and Goldhawks Line Up For New To Q Tour

• 15th Apr 2010

Q Magazine, in conjunction with Live Nation, will launch its first New To Q tour this May. The seven-date UK tour comes on the back of Q’s New To Q Sessions showcase gigs for emerging talent at London’s Tabernacle in January and features a three-band bill.

Geordie indie-rockers Detroit Social Club will be headlining in support of their highly anticipated debut album. They will be joined by the hotly-tipped Tiffany Page and London five-piece Goldhawks will tour the UK together – with the trek beginning in Manchester on 10 May and concluding in London on 18 May.

“We are delighted to announce our first New To Q tour and plan to make this an annual event,” says Q’s Editor In Chief Paul Rees. “We’re equally pleased that the bill is a varied one and is made up of top new UK bands.

“Following on from our New To Q Sessions with the likes of Ellie Goulding, Marina And The Diamonds and Midlake, I also think it re-emphasises Q’s ongoing commitment to highlighting and championing the very best new music. To tie in with the tour, from the next issue we will also be expanding the New To Q section of the magazine to cover more of the best new bands and artists each month.”

The New to Q tour will be calling at:

10 May – Manchester Sound Control
11 May – Glasgow King Tuts
12 May – O2 Academy 2 Newcastle
13 May – Leeds Cockpit
16 May – O2 Academy 2 Bristol
17 May – O2 Academy 2 Birmingham
18 May – London Relentless Garage
