SNAPPER MUSIC 11th July 2005



On tour in June and July
New single Forget Your Regrets out July 18th.





Following the release of their self-titled debut album, The Yards will be embarking on a UK tour in June and July, and releasing the second single from the album Forget Your Regrets.

Fronted by former Seahorse's singer Chris Helme, alongside Stu Fletcher on bass, guitarist Chris Farrell, drummer John Miller and Jon Hargreaves on key boards, The Yards were formed in 2002.

They have spent the past couple of years touring and honing their distinctive sound. Live shows have drawn comparisons to artists as diverse as Buffalo Springfield, Velvet Underground, The Verve, The Stooges, Soft Machine and The Doors, and the influence of many of these bands amongst many others can be heard in their brand of 60s tinged, melodic rock which at times has psychedelic touches and at others is full of punky attitude.


The tour dates are:

Thursday 7th July - Darlington Forum
Saturday 16th July - Guilfest (On stage 3.15 - 3.45)
Sunday 17th July - Bristol Fleece
Friday 22nd July - Newcastle Cluny
Monday 25th July - Manchester Roadhouse
Wednesday 27th July - Nottingham Social
Thursday 28th July - Blakey Festival
Friday 29th July York Fibbers


Forget Your Regrets will be released on July 18th.
