Dutch Uncles have confirmed a release date for their new studio album.

O Shudder will be released on February 23, 2015 through Memphis Industries, and is the follow-up to Out of Touch in the Wild, which was released in January 2013.


The five-piece, who have previously supported acts including Paramore and Everything Everything on tour, will mark the album's release with their largest UK shows to date.

Dutch Uncles will play The Ritz in their native Manchester on March 27, 2015 and Koko in London on April 10, 2015.

Speaking to NME earlier this month, Duncan Wallis said that he was "freaked out" by the warm reception from Paramore's fans during their European tour with the band earlier this year.


"People fall in love with you even though they've only seen you play for half an hour. Just the fact we've shared the same stage as Paramore made us legends all of a sudden," he said.

"It was surreal. Taylor York was pouring his heart out to us backstage about how our music had influenced him to write songs like 'Ain't It Fun' and 'Still Into You'. I was thinking, 'How the hell has this massive group been influenced by five nerds from Manchester trying to write in 7/4 time?'"

Pre-orders of O Shudder include an instant download of Dutch Uncles' new single 'In N Out'. Listen to the track below:
