To support the release of their upcoming single "Stop The Music" out 19th April, and second album "Earth vs The Pipettes" out on 28th June on Fortuna POP!, THE PIPETTES are taking to the road and doing a UK nationwide tour.
In their first incarnation, donning polka dot dresses and referencing the girl groups of the late fifties in the heyday of skinny tie indie music, THE PIPETTES had remarkable success. A top ten album in Japan where the single "Pull Shapes" was only kept off the number one spot by J-LO, top ten radio positions all across Europe, two Top Forty hits in the UK and a Top Ten in the US billboard indies.
They played on the main stages at Reading and Glastonbury, blazed a British trail across SXSW, conquered the world and sold a heap of records. Since then they've been working on their new album "Earth vs The Pipettes" with legendary Martin Rushent, the semi-retired producer of THE STRANGLERS, SHIRLEY BASSEY and, most famously, THE HUMAN LEAGUE's "Dare".
