The UK’s campest collective is off on the road around the UK at the end of 2013 to celebrate the tenth anniversary of their smash album ‘Permission To Land’.

The Darkness will perform several tracks from the Brit award winning album, including previous single releases ‘Get Your Hands Off My Woman’, ‘Growing On Me’ and the number one ‘I Believe In A Thing Called Love’. The group will also play tracks from their top ten album ‘One Way Ticket’ and last release ‘Hot Cakes’ (pictured below).



The idea for this intimate tour, which they have dubbed the ‘Outreach Programme’ due to some remote locations, came from the group missing the sweat and heat of the club environment. Last March saw the group performing across large city halls in the UK followed by some North American dates. Back in 2012 they also supported Lady Gaga on her huge arena and stadium tour.



The East-Anglican based group are also hoping to release new material prior to the tour. Tickets are on sale now for the following dates and locations:
