Brummie quartet The Editors were amongst the wave of new, hip bands, including Franz Ferdinand, Zutons, Maximo Park, Kaiser Chiefs, Arctic Monkeys and Razorlight, which stormed both the charts and indie club dancefloors back in 2005.
Some have since fared better than others, with ‘difficult' second albums and artistic differences diluting some of the bands' initial appeal.
Not so The Editors, who can count two platinum selling albums, a Brit Award and Mercury Music Prize nominations and sell out shows all over the UK amongst their credits during the past few years.
With their third LP release In This Light And On This Evening out later this week, the album's promotional tour kicks off at St George's Market on Wednesday and, despite selling out Belfast's Mandela Hall on two previous occasions, this date is set to be the longest gig the band have ever played in Northern Ireland. Fans can expect to hear plenty of new material, as well as past musical glories which should include their hit singles Munich and Blood. Tickets, priced at £22, are still available and support comes courtesy of Canadian indie rock five piece, Wintersleep.
