Hot Chip Announce 2010 Tour

Hot Chip will return to the stage in early 2010, when they embark on a 12-date tour of the UK.

The new tour gets underway on February 12 in Glasgow and will conclude with two nights at the Brixton Academy in London on February 26-27. Tickets are on sale here.

Speaking of their forthcoming plans (which also includes the release of their next album), Hot Chip say: "As events relentlessly continue to unfold inside the confines of Camp Hot Chip, we can reveal some diverting facts and interesting details of our plans for next year."

"There will be a new album, set for release in early parts of next year, to warm the cockles of your soul right in the middle of the bleak mid-winter."

"We're just completing the finishing touches right now, and we're also gearing up for a return, possibly triumphant, to the live arena, as a UK tour is also in the offing for February."
