Scouting For Girls announce huge UK tour

Scouting For Girls are celebrating the 10th anniversary of their self-titled debut album.

Marking ten years since the release of their million-selling debut album, Scouting For Girls have confirmed a deluxe re-release as well as a huge UK headline tour.

“Here we are ten years on, and thanks to this album, our friendship and our fans we’re still getting away with it, still without proper jobs,” the band announce. “I have nothing but affection for these eleven songs and it’s been lovely to revisit them for this special anniversary edition.”
