Las Vegas rockers, TAKING DAWN have announced a return to the UK in February 2011.

After an exciting start to 2010, supporting labelmates Airbourne on their sold-out UK run, but also rock legends KISS on their massive UK arena tour, the band were last seen here opening the main stage at this summer’s Download Festival. Since then they’ve also gone on to do shows with Murderdolls and Slash in the US, and their video for ‘The Chain’ has been all over Scuzz TV, Kerrang! TV and Lava’s music channel in the UK. A timely return to Blighty seemed only appropriate.

Frontman Chris Babbitt is excited for the band’s return to these shores, enthusing; “If it wasn’t for the UK fans I’d be at the end of my rope, making swing music. We LOVE you fuckers and it’s about time we made it back across the pond to sex you up! B SHRED OR B DEAD! See ya soon!”

Tickets are on sale from Friday from box offices and at the online ticket stores listed below. Full UK dates rack up as follows:

Fri 28th Jan – GLASGOW Garage – TAKING DAWN will be part of a special show – full details TBA/to follow Sun 30th Jan – LEEDS Cockpit (0113 245 4650 - www.lunatickets.co.uk) Mon 31st Jan – LONDON Barfly (0844 847 2424 - www.livenation.co.uk) Tue 1st Feb – WOLVERHAMPTON Slade Room (0870 320 7000 - www.wolvescivic.co.uk) Wed 2nd Feb – COLCHESTER Arts Centre (01206 500900 - www.colchesterartscentre.com) Thu 3rd Feb – PORTSMOUTH Wedgewood Rooms (02392 863911 - www.seetickets.com) Fri 4th Feb – NEWCASTLE O2 Academy (0844 477 2000 – www.ticketweb.co.uk) Sat 5th Feb – OXFORD O2 Academy (0844 477 2000 – www.ticketweb.co.uk) Sun 6th Feb – LIVERPOOL University (Room 2) (0844 477 2000 – www.ticketweb.co.uk)
