The Last Shadow Puppets are coming to America

The Last Shadow Puppets are coming to America

Hot off a surprise Glastonbury performance, which saw Jack White accompany the duo for a rendition of Billy Fury’s “A Wondrous Place”, The Last Shadow Puppets have unveiled a new leg of fall tour dates. And it turns out that Alex Turner and Miles Kane will be making a few appearances in the United States.

The new dates will mark the band’s first return to the states since their unofficial debut in New York City last March. However this time around, the performances promise to be much less intimate - the Last Shadow Puppets will be bringing along a full 16 piece orchestra along for the ride.

Turner and Kane are also gearing up for the release of “Standing Next To Me”, the next single off their debut album, The Age Of The Understatement, on July 8.
