The prodigal and most, most welcome and most, most brilliant Perfume Genius will be heading back our way again later in the year, following on from the wonderfully enchanting debut album, and an equally enchanting show at London's Hoxton Hall.

On this eight-date European tour some venues I've never even heard of will be taken in. Like Cecil Sharp House. Maybe that should be "Cecil Sharp's house"? I dunno. Anyway, here are the dates:

October:
18 – Manchester, St Phillips Church
19 – London, Cecil Sharp House
21 – Bristol, The Cube
22 – Brighton, The Hope
23 – Cardiff, SWN Festival
25 – Belgium, Botanique
26 – Paris, Le Point Ephemere
27 – Amsterdam, Paradiso
28 – Hamburg, Prinzenbar

Tickets available from some of the usual places, some not. Read our review of Learning here. Glowing doesn't quite do it justice.
