0:00It's April 5th, from char toppers to breaking drops. This is Music News Today, powered by AI. Dead Dead's Club just dropped news of their UK headline tour hitting in May of next year. The band, led by former Palm of Violets, frontman Chili Jessen, kicks things off on May 12th at Birmingham's Sunflower Lounge. They'll hit cities like Cardiff, Brighton, Norwich, London, Bedford, Liverpool, and wrap up on May 22nd at Southampton's Xerox. This comes right after their self-titled debut album dropped in January, on fiction records. Carlos O'Connell from Fontaine's DC, produced it, and Jessen linked up with him, while playing live, multi-instrumentalist for the band, back in 20, 23. The album dives deep into grief and loss, pulling from Jessen's own story of losing his dad to drug addiction when he was just 14. It's his first big project in 13 years since Palm of Violets debut, following short stints with cruel intentions and a solo effort.

1:01NME gave it four stars, praising how Jessen turns those dark times into sharp music that hits hard. Fans are buzzing, seeing it as his strongest work since the early days. Tickets are on sale now, so grab your quick before these intimate venues sell out. Keep an eye on Dead Dead's Club, they're building serious momentum.
