On the eve of the release of their third album ‘Decency’ on July 10th, Sunderland’s Frankie & The Heartstrings are pleased to announce a run of live dates in October, plus several festival appearances at the tail end of the summer. See the full list below.
The band are also proprietors of Pop Recs Ltd, the home city record store / community space they opened in 2013, and are currently on the look out for new premises following the sale of their previous outlet. For the time being, the shop will be a pop-up store, located above Scout Vintage, Olive Street in Sunderland, which will also host their album launch party on 11th July.
