The Cribs' North American tour starts in April, new album out now

The Cribs have announced details of their first North American headline tour in nine years. The new album, Selling A Vibe, the UK trio's first in five years, was released last month through Play It Again Sam/PIAS. It already reached #5 on the UK chart. 

Tickets for the tour are on sale now.

Of producer Patrick Wimberly (formerly of C
hairlift, with credits including MGMT), the band said, “We’d always said if we made another record we would specifically focus on enhancing the pop element of the band, so Patrick's way of working and experience in that realm seemed a great fit whilst also being a completely new experience.”

Bassist and vocalist Gary Jarman says: "I think as time has gone by our albums have become more and more open - and as such the songs on 'Selling A Vibe' feel very personal. So it can be nerve wracking releasing them because they matter so much to us. I know that may sound overly romantic or idealistic, but ultimately - it's the only thing that matters when all is said and done. Did we connect with people? We don’t want this to be seen as an “indie rock” record or a “punk” record or whatever - all those things that used to seem to matter to us - our only hope is that people enjoy and connect with the songs and lyrics for what they are. We want them to be for everyone, really. And as such, I suppose you could say that makes it our most ambitious album, as we have fully given ourselves over to that. In short, we sincerely hope you enjoy it."
