AWOLNATION announce HMV Next Big Thing gig


If we could award a prize for sheer genre-splicing brilliance, it'd be to AWOLNATION. The group went Top 5 in the US alternative radio charts last year while simultaneously hitting the airwaves over here with their irresistible single Sail.

Fancy seeing them live? They're hitting the road round the UK in February, taking in the following dates (including HMV's Next Big Thing gig):

Feb 7th MANCHESTER Night & Day                                                                       
Feb 8th GLASGOW Arches
Feb 9th BIRMINGHAM HMV Institute
Feb 10th LONDON HMV NBT/ The Garage
The video for their new single Not Your Fault is a suitably surreal as their music, a Tim Burton styled affair of colourful puppets and buoyant synth-pop riffs. There's even a video game to go with the single release - now that's what we call a real multi-media approach.

Not Your Fault is released on the 20th February.
