Alcest announce second album Ecailles de Lune 10th anniversary European tour

Alcest

Atmospheric French duo Alcest have announced they will celebrate the tenth anniversary of their second album, 2010's Ecailles de Lune, with a European tour throughout September and October, including UK dates in Manchester, Bristol and Brighton.

The band have been forced to postpone the tour several times, the actual anniversary landing in the middle of the Covid pandemic. The band will be supported by The Devi's Trade on all dates. You can see the full list of dates below.

"After the success of our Bataclan show in Paris for the anniversary of Ecailles de Lune we decided to make it a proper tour all over Europe," says band leader Neige. "We can’t wait to play this album for you in its entirety plus selected tracks from all our other albums!

"We are really excited to announce this anniversary Ecailles de Lune tour in Europe along with The Devil’s Trade. We can’t wait to play for you the songs of this album, which is very special to us, as well as others from the rest of our discography."

Alcest have also released a short video in which Neige gives fans a deeper insight into the band's thoughts and motivations, which you can watch below.
