    Polytechnic announce new single release and Irish Tour

    Manchester based 5-piece, Polytechnic, have announced details of a new single, Man Overboard, which is to be released through Shatterproof records on December 4th 2006. The single, produced by Tom Stanley and Polytechnic will be available on limited 7” and also features the track Fingertips.

    The band, who have played alongside the likes of The Strokes, Doves, and The Longcut, have just finished a tour with The Young Knives and have now announced the following Irish dates. Support on the dates will come from The Flaws.

    NOVEMBER
    25th Belfast Queens University
    26th Limerick Dolans
    27th Cork Cypress Avenue
    28th Dublin Whelans


    The band released a brace of critically acclaimed singles through Transgressive earlier this year, Won’t You Come Around in April and Pep in August, both of which drew comparisons to the likes of Can and My Bloody Valentine courtesy of their hypnotic, sun-drenched melodies. They also put in a startling performance at this years SXSW festival in Austin Texas.

    Having formed just over a year ago in Manchester (although Dylan and Yuri have been making music together since their schooldays in Devon), a string of acclaimed live performances towards the end of last year, including an astounding set at In The City, saw the band picking up plays on Radio 1 as well as some glowing column inches in the music press.

    They are currently putting the finishing touches to their debut album which will be released through Shatterproof on the bands own imprint Kings and Creatures, early spring 2007.

    Polytechnic are: Dylan (guitar & vocals), Yuri (bass), Denny (guitar), Tim (drums) & Peet (keyboards
