THE GHOST OF A THOUSAND are proud to announce an extensive headline tour in July. The Rock Sound-sponsored attack on the UK works around the band’s multiple festival appearances all across Europe and TGOAT will be ably supported by The Computers and Sharks. Vocalist Tom Lacey says of the tour “The fact that The Computers and Sharks, the two best new bands in the country, are touring together is awesome enough but that it's with us they're coming out with and to celebrate our album release definitely makes this the punk rock tour of the summer”. TGOAT will also be playing a couple of dates with Anti-Flag towards the end of August, prior to their slot on the Lock Up Stage at Reading and Leeds festivals. The Ghost of A Thousand’s second album ‘New Hopes, New Demonstrations’ will be released through Epitaph on 1st June.
